Tobias Bocanegra commented on JCR-433:
--------------------------------------

i have concerns:
- the static equals method might be very expensive
- don't call equals(getSupertypes(), other.getSupertypes()), this is bad 
practice. rather call: 
  NodeTypeDef.equals(getSupertypes(), other.getSupertypes()). 

are you sure this covers all cases correctly? if so, the nt:base errors in 
nodetype registry should be removed. i would prefer a proper nt:base check and 
automatic addition in the registry.
