Andrés Cordero commented on SENTRY-964:
---------------------------------------

Given that HDFS is case sensitive, is a case insensitive check the way to go? 
It will cause grants on unexpected paths. Sounds like Impala shouldn't be lower 
casing the path before sending it to Sentry.

> Need to do case insensitive checks for childURI.implies(parentURI)
