Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3074:
--------------------------------------

I would prefer this were in the fs package, not util.  In general, we should 
aim to put things in the most-specific package possible, otherwise, everything 
winds up in util.

Also, I would prefer the classes were named  FsUrlStreamHandler and 
FsUrlStreamHandlerFactory.  Acronyms are easier to read when capitalized, not 
all-caps, in Java names.

> This issue aims at providing a handler to resolve DFS URLs 
> ("hdfs://host:port/file/to/path"), so that such URLs can be read using the 
> URL API (mainly {{InputStream url.openStream()}}).
> This allows the use of a {{URLClassLoader}} which would serve classes 
> directly from the DFS.
