Jimmy Xiang commented on HBASE-11349:
-------------------------------------

The patch did some refactory to the REST server impersonation support. So that 
we can share the logic in Thrift. For Thrift, you need to configure 
"hbase.thrift.security.qop" to either auth-conf, auth-int, or auth to enable 
authentication/impersonation. The previous running modes work the same as 
before.

> Thrift server can access HBase as a fixed authenticated user. However, we 
> don't authenticate thrift clients. It will be great if the thrift server can 
> authenticate clients, and support impersonation.
