bq. What's perhaps less straight-forward is to have an event be reported on
another path than where it happend - aka 'moving an event'. That would have to
be explicit, additional code that the filters can't handle.
I've spawned this 'move' aka 'aggregation' part into OAK-5011 and added a patch
suggesting how this could be achieved.
Based on OAK-5011 we could then, similarly as suggested in JCR-4044, implement
this aggregation feature request in the oak-jcr level, independent of
jackrabbit: attached [^JCR-4046.v2.patch] which illustrates this (this is based
on the patch attached to OAK-5011)

> A file in JCR is represented by at least two nodes, the nt:file node and a
> child node named jcr:content holding the contents of the file (and metadata).
> This has the consequence that if the contents of a file changes, a change
> event of the jcr:content node is reported - but not of the nt:file node.
> This makes creating listeners listening for changes in files complicated, as
> you can't use the file name to filter - especially with glob patterns (see
> JCR-4044) this becomes troublesome.
> In addition, whenever you get a change for a jcr:content node, you have to
> check if the parent is a nt:file node and decide based on the result.
> It would be great to have a flag on the JackrabbitEventFilter to enable
> smarter reporting just for nt:files: if a property on jcr:content is changed,
> a change to the nt:file node is reported.
