> I think it would be nice to have a VFS (commons-vfs) based {{FileSystem}} 
> which then can be used by {{BundleFsPersistenceManager}}.
> For example, I have worked with a Jackrabbit based WCMS product which 
> recommends using one of {{BundleDbPersistenceManager}} components for both 
> workspaces and version, which makes it easier for clustering.
> One typical problem is that the version storage in DBMS keeps increasing, so 
> as a result we've recommended cleaning up older version items periodically. 
> (You may google "cms version cleaner" for more info.)
> In this case, if they were able to configure a VFS based {{FileSystem}} and 
> the generic {{PersistenceManager}}, {{BundleFsPersistenceManager}}, for the 
> versions, their DB size would keep small enough, and they may keep the 
> version items almost infinitely. Actually versioning are used relatively less 
> than other normal functionalities such as content retrieval and searching, 
> only when authoring users publish a document in our case. So, keeping version 
> data separately from database wouldn't be a problem, as long as it supports 
> easier clustering (through WebDAV or SFTP in this option).
> Another possible use case is that some people may use VFS based solution for 
> both workspaces and version, backed by a clustered WebDAV server or SFTP 
> server. They can use VFS-based DataStore provided by JCR-3975 as well. This 
> would increase architectural options around Jackrabbit ecosystem.
