Julian Reschke updated JCRVLT-698:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
Currently, vault allows changing primary types - but this only works in 
practice 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).
