    Description

      The default JDBC driver ignores username/password completely in Kerberos auth mode.
      To be able to auth from a web interface, we could enable password pass through by changing
      how the Kerberos transport is established. Specifically, we could use LoginContext to authenticate
      with the kdc, and then use the resulting security context to connect with the hive server.
