Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-12548:
-------------------------------------------

bq. Maybe we should consider the CredentialProvider API?  This could buy you 
multiple implementation types.

I agree on a fundamental level, but .. it comes with a pretty big complexity 
cost for the average user.  Editing a file is going to be significantly easier 
than learning a whole set of commands that they (and, frankly, the vast 
majority of committers!) barely know exist.

That said, nothing is preventing this particular issue being solved multiple 
ways.
