Yet, another problem you are actually bringing up is the configuration of Jackrabbit at large: I think the current way of configuring Jackrabbit is not flexible enough and needs a rework, too (hasn't this been said before :-) ). Maybe your concerns (apart from the PersistenceManager problems) is mainly an issue of how configuration is taking place ?
Yeah, kind of... I think of the whole problem of fixed configuration structure another symptom of the current set of mostly fixed internal interfaces. Since the main structure of Jackrabbit is defined by these interfaces, the configuration model only needs to provide extension points for those interfaces and nothing else. Alternatively one could think of the fixed configuration model as the cause of fixed interfaces. Since changing the configuration model is so hard, it is also hard to change the interfaces that are being configured. I think you are right in raising the configuration model as a key question.
