> Improvements:
>     - We should rename ambari.user property to ambari-server.user
>     - For a user to change this user / group setting, I think we should provide a setup option because if they do change user / group, we also (probably) have to adjust directory and file permissions. And unless we document that (which we should do as well), they will likely just change the .user or .group property, then try to start server but server can't access what it might need.
>     - Looks like user check is performed after property import when performing "ambari-server start" as non-custom user.
