             Summary: Allow to add/remove group members by ID
                 Key: JCR-3880
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3880
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: jackrabbit-api
            Reporter: angela


for some cases it would be convenient if it was possible to add/remove group 
members by ID without having to retrieve the corresponding authorizable 
upfront... in particular for package imports as provided by jackrabbit fvault, 
where the group my be imported before the members are present.

similar it might be useful to remove dangling membership entries once a former 
member got removed.

the current implementations already allow for such a behavior when using an XML 
import run with the _besteffort_ flag set for the import of the associated 
protected items (while failing in case of the other import-behaviour settings). 
such it would complete the API coverage for a feature we already support while 
at the same time control it based on the repository configuration.
