> As of 2023-04-21 in the master branch of the git repository, Kudu allows clients to authenticate with servers server using [JWT|https://jwt.io/], JSON Web Tokens.  However, a missing piece is a means to allow a Kudu client application to supply a JWT as its authentication credentials in an application-friendly way.  The way [how it's done in recently added tests in Kudu test scaffolding|https://github.com/apache/kudu/blob/7747a7c0149d6e8f894ad3216c54db9f27b3d372/src/kudu/integration-tests/security-itest.cc#L693-L704] isn't the way to go if thinking about usable client API.
> It's necessary to add such a means for both C++ and Java Kudu client API.  Ideally, the corresponding C++ and Java parts of the API should match and be very similar.
