> 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.,
