Guang Yang commented on HBASE-15942:
------------------------------------
Thanks all for the comments.
I might be wrong, but at least for now, only the table schema would be exposed
to caller once the validation passed (HMaster#getTableDescriptors), the details
of HCD (including the encryption keys, etc) would not.
As [~andrew.purt...@gmail.com] pointed out, more information might get added to
HTD and HCD, but if the contract that we only expose schema for the
getTableDescriptors holds, I guess we are safe in that regard?
> User with 'RWX' permission of the table should be able to describe the table

> Currently only the user who has 'ADMIN' or 'CREATE' permission could describe
> the table (via shell), it brings some inconvenience and confusion to those
> uses who have RWX permission since they couldn't describe the table to get
> the schema.
