> Currently the only way users can impersonate another user is by creating a
> NimbusClient explicitly by passing a doAsUser Param. We should allow a config
> value "doAsUser" to ensure users can submit this config as part of storm jar
> command. This will be useful for storm-rest/ui component which now has the
> ability to submit topology. Using this config value the ui server can submit
> a storm topology on behalf of another user and the topology will still
> execute as the submitter.
