> Introduce a specific provider for integrating the Hadoop
> GroupMappingServiceProvider for looking up group membership of the
> authenticated (asserted) identity.
> This will allow customers' existing investments in the Hadoop hook to be
> leveraged within Knox and used within the access control policy enforcement
> at the perimeter.
> This mechanism will likely be mutual exclusive of the Shiro provider group
> support - though there may be use cases where they could supplement each
> other.
