Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-10646:
----------------------------------------

bq. The security features can mostly be enabled independently, although most 
features depend on secure authentication and secure RPC.

My understanding is that secure rpc is a separate implementation from the 
normal rpc today.  Does "merging" the secure rpc into the normal rpc make sense 
-- a negotiation at connection time and a runtime variable that says requires 
or doesn't require secure rpc?

bq. For this JIRA, it could be sufficient to enable most of the security 
features in the default configuration, excepting those which have, due to their 
nature, a performance consequence.

Can we just have a single security == true or security  == false config 
property?  For snapshots we added so that users only had to set that -- all the 
various plugins required for it to work got added when snapshots.enabled was 
set to true.

> Enable security features by default for 1.0
