Venkatesh Seetharam commented on FALCON-229:
--------------------------------------------

bq.  are you concerned about OPTIONS method invocation by the 
KerberosAuthenticator? 
[~sriksun], yes, I'm concerned about this exact thing. 

bq. If so the latest patch enables that on SSL.
I doubt that since org.apache.falcon.client.FalconClient#getToken uses 
org.apache.hadoop.security.authentication.client.AuthenticatedURL from 
hadoop-auth to authenticate and fetch a token.

{code} new AuthenticatedURL(AUTHENTICATOR).openConnection(url, currentToken); 
{code}

This is an open issue IMO. Do you agree?
