> It is currently the client's responsibility to call
> {{SecurityUtil.getServerPrincipal()}} to replace the _HOST placeholder in any
> principal name used for a delegation token. This is a non-optional operation
> and should not be pushed onto the client. As the
> {{SecurityUtil.getServerPrincipal()}} call is already designed to be both
> highly efficient and idempotent, I see no reason not to move the call into
> the {{FileSystem.addDelegationToken()}} call.
> As additional incentive, all client apps that followed the distributed shell
> as the canonical example failed to do the replacement because distributed
> shell fails to do the replacement. (See YARN-4629.) Rather than fixing the
> whole world, let's move the operation into the API where it belongs.
