> Docker provides a mechanism (the --user switch) that enables us to specify 
> the user the container processes should run as. We use this mechanism today 
> when launching docker containers . In non-secure mode, we run the docker 
> container based on 
> `yarn.nodemanager.linux-container-executor.nonsecure-mode.local-user` and in 
> secure mode, as the submitting user. However, this mechanism breaks down with 
> a large number of 'pre-created' images which don't necessarily have the users 
> available within the image. Examples of such images include shared images 
> that need to be used by multiple users. We need a way in which we can allow a 
> pre-defined set of users to run containers based on existing images, without 
> using the --user switch. There are some implications of disabling this user 
> squashing that we'll need to work through : log aggregation, artifact 
> deletion etc.,
