admin user in hive

Hi,

I want to enable authentication+authorization on my hive server. But I want
only one admin user who can create other user as admin/public. But by
default any user who types 'set role admin' can become admin and grants any
user any permission. How can i avoid this behavior?

Hive version is 0.13

Use the new SQL standard authorization rather than the default 
authorization.  See
