Josh Elser resolved HBASE-17115.
--------------------------------
    Hadoop Flags: Reviewed
    Release Note: 
Implements authorization for the HBase Web UI by limiting access to certain 
endpoints which could be used to extract sensitive information from HBase.

Access to these restricted endpoints can be limited to a group of 
administrators, identified either by a list of users 
(hbase.security.authentication.spnego.admin.users) or by a list of groups
(hbase.security.authentication.spnego.admin.groups).  By default, neither of 
these values are set which will preserve backwards compatibility (allowing all 
authenticated users to access all endpoints).

Further, users who have sensitive information in the HBase service 
configuration can set hbase.security.authentication.ui.config.protected to true 
which will treat the configuration endpoint as a protected, admin-only 
resource. By default, all authenticated users may access the configuration 
endpoint.
      Resolution: Fixed

PreCommit on 1.x looks like it's busted. Resolving this for now and will 
revisit a 1.x backport when I can figure out what's going on with precommit.
