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

             Summary: Allow whitespaces in the principal name
                 Key: KAFKA-5714
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-5714
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: security
    Affects Versions: 0.10.2.1
            Reporter: Alla Tumarkin


Request
Improve parser behavior to allow whitespaces in the principal name in the 
config file, as in:
{code}
super.users=User:CN=Unknown, OU=Unknown, O=Unknown, L=Unknown, ST=Unknown, 
C=Unknown
{code}

Background
Current implementation requires that there are no whitespaces after commas, i.e.
{code}
super.users=User:CN=Unknown,OU=Unknown,O=Unknown,L=Unknown,ST=Unknown,C=Unknown
{code}

Note: having a semicolon at the end doesn't help, i.e. this does not work either
{code}
super.users=User:CN=Unknown, OU=Unknown, O=Unknown, L=Unknown, ST=Unknown, 
C=Unknown;
{code}
