PS8, Line 25: the Kudu client runs in the plugin and communicates
            : with the cluster
For the Kerberos-enabled case I'm curious how the expiration of authn 
credentials is handled there.  IIRC, Kudu client itself doesn't have provisions 
to renew Kerberos tickets nor it accepts a keytab.  It's assumed that a Kudu 
client re-uses creds from the Kerberos cache (which is supposed to be 
initialized externally by other actors).

So, the concern here is that when Kerberos creds in the cache expire, this 
unexpectedly stops working.  And if so, would it create some problems in the 
consistency of catalog data on its own.  For example, something that would 
require a manual intervention to restore the consistency.

Did you try to run this if using very short-lived kerberos tickets?  I guess 
that's something about setting 'ticket_lifetime' and 'renew_lifetime' to few 
minutes in krb5.conf
