bq. I have reverted from trunk, branch-2 and branch-2.8.

This puts alpha1 in a weird state.  At a minimum, a release note is going to be 
required to clarify what code is in what branch. (FWIW, I did the same thing 
with another patch and pretty much regret it.  High five!)

> We have a scenario where we log in with kerberos as a certain user for some 
> tasks, but also want to add tokens to the resulting UGI that would be 
> specific to each task. We don't want to authenticate with kerberos for every 
> task.
> I am not sure how this can be accomplished with the existing UGI interface. 
> Perhaps some clone method would be helpful, similar to createProxyUser minus 
> the proxy stuff; or it could just relogin anew from ticket cache. 
> getUGIFromTicketCache seems like the best option in existing code, but there 
> doesn't appear to be a consistent way of handling ticket cache location - the 
> above method, that I only see called in test, is using a config setting that 
> is not used anywhere else, and the env variable for the location that is used 
> in the main ticket cache related methods is not set uniformly on all paths - 
> therefore, trying to find the correct ticket cache and passing it via the 
> config setting to getUGIFromTicketCache seems even hackier than doing the 
> clone via reflection ;) Moreover, getUGIFromTicketCache ignores the user 
> parameter on the main path - it logs a warning for multiple principals and 
> then logs in with first available.
