> Authorizations given to roles, should use generic role-based principals rather than hard-coded resource types.  
> Access to views can be assigned to all users with a given role.  The implementation for this lead to the creation of hard-coded principals that represent the current set of roles. This is not dynamic enough for possibly future enhancements where new roles may be created by administrators. 
> This needs to be changed such that rather that using the hard-coded pseudo-role-principals, the dynamically generated role-principals are to be used.
> The hard-coded pseudo-role-principals have the following {{adminprincipaltype}} values as opposed to "ROLE":
> * ALL.CLUSTER.ADMINISTRATOR
> * ALL.CLUSTER.OPERATOR
> * ALL.SERVICE.ADMINISTRATOR
> * ALL.SERVICE.OPERATOR
> * ALL.CLUSTER.USER
> These should be removed along with the associated {{adminprincipal}} records. 
> Also, the FE should be updated to set permissions using the dynamic role-principals.
> Finally, code should be cleaned up to remove unneeded code in 
> * org.apache.ambari.server.security.authorization.ClusterInheritedPermissionHelper
> * org.apache.ambari.server.controller.internal.GroupPrivilegeResourceProvider#getResources
> * org.apache.ambari.server.controller.internal.PrivilegeResourceProvider#toEntity
> * org.apache.ambari.server.controller.internal.UserPrivilegeResourceProvider#getResources
> * org.apache.ambari.server.security.authorization.AuthorizationHelper#isAuthorized
> * org.apache.ambari.server.view.ViewRegistry#addClusterInheritedPermissions
> * ...
