Make open scoped locks recoverable
----------------------------------
Key: JCR-2859
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2859
Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: locks
Affects Versions: 2.2.0
Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
The lock tokens for open scoped locks are currently tied to the session which
created the lock. If the session dies (for whatever reason) there is no way to
recover the lock and unlock the node.
There is a theoretical way of adding the lock token to another session, but in
most cases the lock token is not available.
Fortunately, the spec allows to relax this behaviour and I think it would make
sense to allow all sessions from the same user to unlock the node - this is
still in compliance with the spec but would make unlocked locked nodes possible
in a programmatic way.
