Yolanda M. Davis updated NIFI-4211:
-----------------------------------
    Description: With the introduction of the new UserGroup and Policy provider 
interfaces there appears to be an opportunity to allow users to share UserGroup 
provider config information for login identity (authentication).  For example, 
when using a single LDAP source for authentication and to pull user/group 
information to correlate with policy, currently users would need to setup 
configuration in both the login-identity-providers.xml and the authorizers.xml 
files with essentially the same information. Having a way to share this 
provider information between these two features I think would help simplify 
setup.  (was: With the introduction of the new UserGroup and Policy provider
