> It would be useful for some Oozie users if, when using Kerberos, that browser access to the oozie web UI could be authenticated in a different way (w/o Kerberos).  This may be useful for other projects using Hadoop-Auth, so this feature is to add a new AuthenticationHandler that uses Kerberos by default, unless a browser (user-agents are configurable) is used, in which case some other form of authentication can be used.
