Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze updated HADOOP-10416:
-----------------------------------------

    Description: 
PseudoAuthenticationHandler currently only gets username from the "user.name" 
parameter.  If there is an expired auth token in the request, the token is 
ignored (without returning any error back to the client).  Further, if 
anonymous is enabled, the client will be authenticated as anonymous.

The above behavior seems non-desirable since the client does not want to be 
authenticated as anonymous.
