--------------------------------------

Thanks for filing this, Keith.

Would be good to note {{SecurityOperations.getDelegationToken(DelegationTokenConfig)}} is the intended factory-method for obtaining a DelegationToken instance on the class-level javadoc. Looks like I didn't do that the first time around.

> Noticed that the public method of DelegationToken were using types not intended for public API.  Need to refactor it such that method using Hadoop types that are not {{Stable}} and accumulo types not in public API like {{AuthenticationTokenIdentifier}} are not exposed.  [~elserj] indicated he intended the object to be contstucted by {{SecurityOperations}}.  Could make the class an Abstract/Opaque Type removing lots of methods.
