import operation does not respect :replace=true for properties
--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SLING-1627
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1627
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JCR
            Reporter: Zach A. Thomas


If I want to import some JSON and then update it with a subsequent POST (using 
the :replace=true flag), the nodes are updated, but not the properties.

curl -u admin:admin -F":operation=import" -F":contentType=json" 
-F':content={"columns": {"one":"value"}, "layout": "dev"}' 
http://localhost:8080/dashboard

If I do a subsequent POST with the :replace parameter:

curl -u admin:admin -F":operation=import" -F":contentType=json" 
-F':content={"columns": {"one":"love"}, "layout": "dev"}' -F":replace=true" 
http://localhost:8080/dashboard

The columns object is updated, but the layout property is not. I tracked this 
down to Sling's DefaultContentCreator, whose createProperty method expressly 
won't overwrite a property if it already exists.
