Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-2381:
--------------------------------------
bq. We should throw an exception if an error occurs while fetching permission
data.
so get() methods for these would throw an IOException, right?
bq. Adding methods to a base class is itself a burden, since they'll need to be
maintained back-compatibly. The base class should permit implementations that
compute these lazily, but does not need explicit hooks for lazy
implementations. Computing something lazily should require overloading the
getter.
makes sense.
