Chris Nauroth resolved HADOOP-10391.
------------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

I'm resolving this as won't fix.  I agree with the comments from Arpit and 
Daryn that the stricter validation introduced in HADOOP-10211 is a good thing.  
I agree that the old behavior was a bug, so there is less onus to support it 
from a backwards-compatibility perspective.

I do think it's important to publish a release note, so I added that to 
HADOOP-10211.  Could someone who worked the original issue please review what I 
entered?  Feel free to make changes to the content as you see fit.

Thank you, everyone, and sorry for the distraction.

> HADOOP-10211 changed parsing of QOP values to support a comma-separated list. 
>  This change accidentally broke backwards-compatibility with existing 
> configs.  Previously, an unrecognized value caused it to default to 
> authentication.  Now, an unrecognized value causes 
> {{IllegalArgumentException}}.  Some deployments had been using a value of 
> "none" in insecure clusters, so the change would break those existing 
> deployments.
