I see. This will not in fact be used to perform full user authentication, but
rather just to check if the user is permitted to access things as dfs.web.ugi
access.
The only issue I have is that FilterConfiguration should probably be an
abstract class rather than an interface, so that we can update it without
breaking user code. Other than that, +1.
> org.apache.hadoop.http.HttpServer should support user configurable filter
