> HIVE-1010 added support for information_schema. However, the authorization information is not integrated when another project such as Ranger is used to do the authorization.
> We need to add API which Ranger/Sentry can implement, so that it is possible to retrieve authorization policy information from them.
> The existing API only supports checking if user has a permission on an object and can't be used to retrieve policy details.
