> In some environments you have multi-tenant clusters.  In those environments you sometimes have users, operations, support teams, and framework development teams (Spark, MR, etc developers).  When users have issues with their application they can ask for help from support teams or development.    In those cases you want the support team or development teams to be able to see the application UI so they can help the user debug what is going on without having to rerun the application.   
> In order to more easily do that we can add a concept of "admin acls" to the UI. This is the list of users who are considered admins for the cluster and would always have permission to view the UI.  Generally this list would be set at the cluster level and picked up by anyone running on that cluster.
> We should add "admin acls" to the Spark web ui to allow this.
