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
