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

Is there really no planned fix or workaround for this? Thanks! If there is no planned fix, then shouldn't user names containing periods be banned in the first place?

> We have an environment where usernames have period characters between their first and last names.
> This breaks parsing while trying to grant permissions, e.g.,
> hive> grant all on database mydb to user first.last;
> FAILED: ParseException line 1:40 missing EOF at '.' near 'first'
