> When clients connect over http, we should allow them to perform impersonation via the 'doAs' parameter, eg. by specifying a path of the form '/?doAs=<username>'
> This is useful for example for Apache Knox, which proxies connections to Impala and authenticates as itself via Kerberos but runs queries as other users.
> We can leverage the existing support for impersonation, eg. knox would have to be included in 'authorized_proxy_user_config' to be able to do the impersonation
