    @revans2 I pulled out of all the dependencies from hadoop-auth as most of 
them are already in storm-core/pom.xml or not needed. I noticed a bug when user 
doesn't have UI-Filter configured it will throw an exception as servlet-request 
doesn't contain any user related info which causes authorizer to fail. I'll 
update the PR. Thanks.


> (Security) ui actions should have nimbus like authroization

> The UI provides APIs to kill, rebalance, ... a topology.  For security we 
> originally took the route to optionally disable these, but ideally the UI 
> server would load an IAuthorizer instance like nimbus, and check if the user 
> is allowed to perform that operation before doing it on behalf of the user.
> This should be fairly straight forward but may require some glue code like is 
> being used in the drpc server for its web interface.
