Hi Sam
Regarding SLING-1778: it's not feasible to leverage the SLING-1778 features
for all aspects within CQ5, as some of the CQ5 features directly access the
JCR API and thus the ResourceProvider magic happening in Sling is not
effective. This is especially true for page nodes.
If the nodes you're using are fully controlled by your application, you can
try building the symlinks bundle from the SLING-1778 patch and install it.
It's self-contained and IIRC there are no dependency issues in CQ5.3. So no
patching or updating of bundles delivered with CQ should be required. Only
the symlinks bundle would then be at your responsibility.
Regards
Julian
