Stefan Guggisberg commented on JCR-2068:
----------------------------------------

i agree with sergey. this is IMO a bug. passing a null value in setProperty is 
perfectly legal according to the spec (setting a property to null is equivalent 
to calling the remove() method on the property instance. it certainly shouldn't 
throw a runtime exception.

however, i wasn't able to reproduce it with a local jackrabbit instance.  might 
be a RMI related issue. 

> null value could be set into propertyDefinition
