Alan Gates commented on HIVE-78:
--------------------------------
Having Hive own all the files and run all the jobs presents serious security
issues since UDFs would be running code as root. This would also pose problems
for Howl, as Pig and MR can't runs jobs as Hive. Maybe this isn't the right
forum for this discussion. If there's a better one, let me know.
