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

Regarding to [Alejandro's comment|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2316?focusedCommentId=13148913&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13148913]

For #1, as long as we agree that implementation could be case insensitive.  This becomes a documentation discussion.  I will carefully think about it.

For #4, how about something like: permission is represented as an Octal while an Octal is represented by string "[0-7]+".  We cannot limit it to 3 digits since there is an additional digit for the sticky bit.  Also, leading zeros should be insignificant.

For #5, I will at least refer token encoding to the Hadoop doc and try to make it clear in our doc.
