Laxman commented on HBASE-6188:
-------------------------------
I think we need to do the following.
1) In PostCreate - We can grant CRWA permissions to the current user(i.e.
owner).
2) Remove the usage of owner (ìn AccessController).
3) Deprecate (Or remove?) owner related apis in HTableDescriptor.
4) Modify admin.rb as per #3.
Any other approach?

> The table owner concept was a design simplification in the initial drop.
> First, the design changes under review means only a user with GLOBAL CREATE
> permission can create a table, which will probably be an administrator.
> Then, granting implicit permissions may lead to oversights and it adds
> unnecessary conditionals to our code. So instead the administrator with
> GLOBAL CREATE permission should make the appropriate grants at table create
> time.
