[~sseth], [~acmurthy], why is this needed? if the AM has the corresponding delegation tokens, things work just fine, Oozie has been doing this for years; the splits are computed in the launcher job which does not have kerberos credentials.

> Currently, delegation tokens are obtained as part of the getSplits / checkOutputSpecs calls to the InputFormat / OutputFormat respectively.
> This works as long as the splits are generated on a node with kerberos credentials. For split generation elsewhere (AM for example), an explicit interface is required.
