Larry McCay commented on HADOOP-10970:
--------------------------------------
I believe that the classpath type approach has value but I don't think that I
would be opposed to adding a an additional signature to the factory to look up
a provider by specific URI. I assume that by KeyCredentials you mean
CredentialProvider. In that case, adding such a method to each factory would be
fine by me.
To be clear though - I do not want to see the provider.path approach to go away.
[~owen.omalley] - do you have any problem with adding a provider specific
lookup method?

> It'd be nice to add descriptions to the config keys in kms-site.xml.
> Also, it'd be good to rename key.provider.path to key.provider.uri for
> clarity, or just drop ".path".
