Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3854:
--------------------------------------
Ah, so the motivating use-case is authentication. Should we address this more
directly then? With the proposed general mechanism, one might have to be
careful to disable it for shuffle transfers, and once configured, adding a
second filter for logging might be tricky. We currently really only want this
for authentication on user-facing web interfaces, right?
> org.apache.hadoop.http.HttpServer should support user configurable filter
