------------------------------------
We'll also need Release Notes here before resolving (it's a field on the Jira
issue you can add via "Edit"). It would also be great if you could add that for
us.

> HBASE-19852 is not backwards compatible since it now requires the SPNEGO
> thrift configs. I haven't seen anything in Apache HBase about changing this
> so that the older configs still work with a merged keytab. (fall back to the
> non SPNEGO specific principal/keytab configs)
> I wrote the original patch in HBASE-19852 and with hindsight being 20/20, I
> think this section of could be extended to fall back to not requiring the
> additional configs.
> https://github.com/apache/hbase/blame/master/hbase-thrift/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/thrift/ThriftHttpServlet.java#L78
> Supporting the older configs allows upgrade from HBase 1.x to 2.x without
> needing to change the configs ahead of time. I'll make sure to log a
> deprecation warning if the older configs are used.
