---------------------------
Summary: User Management: API for System Users
Key: JCR-3802
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3802
Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: JCR API
Reporter: angela
Apache Sling recently added the ability to define dedicated service users that
allows to replace the troublesome {{SlingRepository.loginAdministrative}} with
{{SlingRepository.loginService}}.
In a default Sling repository backed by a Jackrabbit/Oak content repository
this results in user accounts being created for these service users.
Since these service users are never expected to represent a real subject that
has a userId/password pair or profile information editable by this very
subject, I figured out that it may be useful to cover these service users with
the following API extensions, which would allow us to identify if a given user
account is in fact a service (or system) user.
