--------------------------------------------

Aren't you supposed to use a read-only user in that case? Like anonymous?

> Read-only session

> It would be nice to have a way to declare that a given JCR session will only 
> be used for reading, regardless of the access rights of the logged in user. 
> This would be useful for example in web applications that want to enforce 
> constraints like allowing no writes during processing of GET requests.
> This could be implemented for example as a per-session flag that could be set 
> through an extra parameter in the login() call, like this: 
> repository.login("workspace-name?readonly", credentials);
> Alternatively a security manager could be connected with a ThreadLocal 
> variable set for example by a servlet filter based on the current request 
> method.
