> The improvement here is that the when you are using the AuthorizationID to 
> Delegate to a user, the current SaslGssCallbackHandler will error out because 
> the AuthorizationID and AuthenticationID wont match. Usually the 
> AuthorizationID is null and the handshake sets it to equal AuthenticationID
> but if you've already pre-set it the Handshake will pass that to the 
> CallBackHandler which will cause the error.
> The use case for this change is as follows:
> Setting the AuthorizationID when connecting via JDBC is a form of 
> impersonation, This is usually because you have a service in front of Hive 
> delegating to hive via JDBC and using the AuthorizationID to delegate rather 
> than proxy user. This coincides with using Active Directory as your 
> Kerberos Back end and wanting to use their Delegation/Constrained Delegation 
> Feature.
> This is not uncommon, Both 
> [Zookeeper|https://github.com/apache/zookeeper/blob/trunk/src/java/main/org/apache/zookeeper/server/auth/SaslServerCallbackHandler.java#L120]
> and [Apache 
> Storm|https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/master/storm-core/src/jvm/org/apache/storm/security/auth/kerberos/ServerCallbackHandler.java#L86]
>  do something similar.
