Jing Zhao commented on HADOOP-8779:
-----------------------------------
Based on the discussion in HDFS-9184, should we continue the work here as a
long-term solution? To have token regardless of authentication type can also
make multi-tenancy in HDFS easier to build: maybe we can utilize token to
indicate the io priority of a job, or more generally the resource that a job
can use within HDFS.
