Daryn Sharp commented on HADOOP-10904:
--------------------------------------
Please fix {{CredentialProvider#unnestUri}}, in this jira or subtask, to not
violate URI syntax. Specifically:
bq. For example, "myscheme://hdfs@nn/my/path" is converted to
"hdfs://nn/my/path".
The "@" is RFC defined to separate userinfo and host:port in an authority.
I've been meaning to take advantage of the userinfo for a legit purpose (well
beyond the scope of this discussion) and an "abuse" like this will likely
conflict. A more URI-friendly approach is using subschemes:
"myscheme+hdfs://nn/my/path".
