Zsombor Gegesy commented on HADOOP-14951:
-----------------------------------------

Sure, good idea. The only thing which concern me currently, is that currently 
we have _boolean hasAccess(Type keyOperationType, UserGroupInformation ugi, 
String key)_ and _boolean hasAccessToKey(String keyName, UserGroupInformation 
ugi, KeyOpType opType)_ which looks very similar, the only real difference is 
the operation type enum. Do we really need two separate types?

> Currently, it is not possible to customize KMS's key management, if KMSACLs 
> behaviour is not enough. If an external key management solution is used, that 
> would need a higher level API, where it can decide, if the given operation is 
> allowed, or not.
>  For this to achieve, it would be a solution, to introduce a new interface, 
> which could be implemented by KMSACLs - and also other KMS - and a new 
> configuration point could be added, where the actual interface implementation 
> could be specified.
