John Vines commented on ACCUMULO-996:
-------------------------------------

The fundamental note of the simplification is basically rather than having a 
byteblob which encapsulates a principal and whatever else is needed, we switch 
to a AuthInfo style which still has the principal on the outside and a byteblob 
which gets passed to the Authenticator to figure out how to handle it. And i we 
know the principal, we can still have the system user interpreted as a 
password, which was the main need after my initial implementation to have the 
AccumuloToken being deserialized outside of the security framework.
                
> explore exposing accumulo token in proxy
