PROPPATCH doesn't respect document order
----------------------------------------

         Key: JCR-405
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-405
     Project: Jackrabbit
        Type: Bug

  Components: webdav  
    Reporter: Julian Reschke
    Priority: Minor


PROPPATCH is currently implemented in terms of 
DavResource.alterProperties(...), which takes a set of properties to be set and 
a set of properties to be removed. This is not sufficient to model WebDAV's 
method semantics, as the order in which set/remove instructions appear is 
supposed to be relevant.

I have submitted a patch to the Litmus mailing list checking this (see 
<http://mailman.webdav.org/pipermail/litmus/2006-April/000196.html>).

In jcr-server, alterProperties probably should be changed to take an (ordered) 
list of set/remove instructions instead. The simplest approach for that would 
probably be to use a List containing either DavProperty (set) or 
DavPropertyName (remove) objects.
