Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3479:
--------------------------------------

This new class unfortunately duplicates a lot of code from Configuration.  We 
need more configuration classes, but rather fewer.  Long-term we should get rid 
of JobConf, and replace it with, e.g., setter and getter methods on a Job 
class, where Job has a Configuration field and does not subclass Configuration.

It also seems to me that your needs here could be met with the existing 
Configuration, by either:
 - a separate config file per queue; and/or
 - a property-naming convention, e.g., queue.default.allowed-users, for the 
"default" queue.
If you need a list of all queues, you could either scan, or add a property that 
lists queue names.

This might not be optimal, but it would be functional.  Revamping Configuration 
should not be done by a proliferation of new, incompatible configuration 
mechanisms, but rather by enhancing or replacing the existing mechanism.
