Levente Santha commented on SLING-5753: --------------------------------------- 1. If a Sling Model class implements the Use interface or extends a class implementing it, that certainly means that the particular model would be supporting a Sightly script. This actually extends the domain of application of Sling Models as a tool while providing support for a domain not covered so far. 2. If I look at the design goals of Sling Models the anomaly described here clearly goes against some of them. 3. It's quite intrusive behavior to add an annotation and as a result have some functionality disabled in my class. I want to enhance my classes not to reduce them and then work on rewriting lost functionality. (It might also violate the JLS [1].)
