-------------------------------------
Summary: allow primary nodetype updates that make the node more
restrictive
Key: JCRVLT-698
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCRVLT-698
Project: Jackrabbit FileVault
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: vlt
Reporter: Julian Reschke
Currently, vault allows changing primary types - but this only works in
practive when the content after import actually conforms to the new type
definition. Thus, using a new type that is more restrictive may fail later on
when the session is saved.
A new mode could allow removing or moving away child items that conflict with
the new type definition, but this will likely need to be an opt-in.
Furhermore, this would require replicating node type internals from the JCR
implementation - instead, we could also consider exposing more information from
the JCR implementation, such as listing conflicting child nodes (throug an
extension API).
