Andrew Wang resolved HADOOP-9357.
---------------------------------
    Resolution: Invalid

I'm going to just resolve this one, unlikely we're going to make any FileContext changes at this point.

> Currently, FileContext adheres rather strictly to RFC2396 when it comes to parsing absolute URIs (URIs with a scheme). If a user asks for a URI like "hdfs:///tmp", FileContext will error while FileSystem will add the authority of the default FS (e.g. turn it into "hdfs://defaultNN:port/tmp"). 
> This is technically correct, but FileSystem's behavior is nicer for users and okay based on 5.2.3 in the RFC, so lets do it in FileContext too:
> {noformat}
> For backwards
> compatibility, an implementation may work around such references
> by removing the scheme if it matches that of the base URI and the
> scheme is known to always use the  syntax.  The parser
> can then continue with the steps below for the remainder of the
> reference components.  Validating parsers should mark such a
> misformed relative reference as an error.
> {noformat}
