Jukka Zitting commented on JCR-2859:
------------------------------------
I would treat this as an administration operation that normal client sessions
should not be able to do. We could for example allow admin sessions (or
sessions with some special privilege) to unlock any locks in the repository.
> 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.
