Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-6959:
--------------------------------------------
bq. Actually it can not because the value is reset in initialize() method based
on config setting.
Oops, you're right. I had forgotten about that initialize() paradigm we use
here instead of a constructor.
bq. Would you please take a look at the new revision? thanks.
Can we call this "home directory prefix" instead of "home dir base"? It seems
clearer. Similarly, homeDirBase -> homeDirectoryPrefix, etc.
+1 once that's addressed
> make user home directory customizable
