Todd Lipcon updated HIVE-842:
-----------------------------

    Attachment: hive-842.txt

Here's a "preview" patch of this work. A few notes:
- This checks in a bunch of Thrift classes that are in Thrift trunk. Thrift is 
currently in rc phase for an 0.5.0 release, so we can ditch these thrift 
classes out of Hive as soon as that's out (probably before this patch is even 
ready for commit)
- There are still some javadocs that could be improved a little bit.
- There's currently not any integration into the "guts" of Hive - we simply 
assume the calling user's identity as soon as the RPC is received. I think 
that's OK for the scope of this patch, as discussed above.

There's a bit of a lurking bug, I believe, due to HADOOP-6982, but it's 
shouldn't be major.
