Ashish Thusoo commented on HIVE-30:
-----------------------------------

I think user.name should be implicitly set in the session and should be 
implicitly populated with some javascript code to mimic the user from the web 
clients host OS.

For sessionname, I think we should just punt on the userid thingy for now 
considering that we do not have any notion of a user at all and we should do 
once we have the common authentication stuff setup for that (will file an 
alternate JIRA for that).

If we go with the current sessionname abstractions we can easily though in a 
whole user management layer on top of that once the user 
authentication/authorization infrastructure is ready.

> Hive needs a web interface. The initial checkin should have:
> * simple schema browsing
> * query submission
> * query history (similar to MySQL's SHOW PROCESSLIST)
> A suggested feature: the ability to have a query notify the user when it's 
> completed.
> Edward Capriolo has expressed some interest in driving this process.
