Andrew Wang commented on HADOOP-10696:
--------------------------------------
Code-wise this looks good, I just have the same question as Mike about using KV
pairs (which seems more general and future-proof). Could we get some commentary
on which key managers use tags vs. KV pairs? It'd be unfortunate to have to
revisit this after the API is released.
