Unico Hommes commented on JCR-3507:
-----------------------------------

Do you mean that we add a configuration option to check against whether such 
actions are allowed or not before proceeding with the remove? Note that the 
internal API already has the ability to remove individual versions of the 
version histories, just not the entire version history object. If we add such a 
check I propose we also use it to check whether removing individual versions is 
allowed.

> Version histories can become orphaned. This happens when the subject node is 
> removed from the repository. In order to deal with the problem of 
> indefinitely growing data stores, it should be possible to create 
> functionality that removes such orphaned version histories.
