--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-5743
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5743
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: conf
            Reporter: Shevek


Patch to configuration to:

* Update documentation to match code
* Make configurations hierarchical
* Remove global REGISTRY of configurations
* Adding global default does not reload child configurations
* (Eventually) make properly thread-safe
* Allow well-behaved overriding with nulls
* Allow future satisfaction of ticket 5708 (with which I agree, but Doug does 
not).
