Hello HDFS brethren !

I've noticed that the testHDFSConf.xml has alot of references to
supergroup.

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/trunk/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/test/resources/testHDFSConf.xml

1) I wonder why this is hardcoded in the testHDFSConf.xml

2) Also, Im wondering if there are any good ideas for extending/modifying
this file for a extention of the FileSystem implementation.

Right  now im doing some global find replace statements - but was thinking
that maybe parameterizing the file would be a good JIRA - so that people
could use this as a base test for FileSystem implementations

Depending on feedback im certainly willing to submit and put in a first
pass at a more modular version of this file.

Its in many ways a very generalizable component of the hdfs trunk.

Thanks!
