Craig Macdonald commented on HADOOP-3536:
-----------------------------------------

Doug, so your suggesting essentially a FileSystem object open for each user 
accessing the DFS?

The alternative is having mounts for every user (which is still in the spirit 
of fuse).


> Support permissions in fuse-dfs

> Currently permissions are unsupported by fuse-dfs.
> This manifests itself as two issues:
>  * Users accessing a fuse-dfs mount do so as the user running fuse_dfs 
> executable. In this case, it would be better to run fuse-dfr as some 
> privileged user, and use Hadoop API calls determine whether the current user 
> was privileged enough to perform the action.
>  * Users cannot view/change permissions on the mounted volume. See  
> HADOOP-3264
