Sure, we could upload the whole jar, but this requires more work to do in
Eclipse - instead of just doing a simple ping to the server.
I believe that in the local case, the current mechanism is a little bit faster
(we could even improve and create the jar just in memory).

Even back then the WebConsole ReST API was available so I am wondering why you
changed your mind in the meantime :-)

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11678
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Konrad Windszus
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently the endpoint provided by Tooling Support Endpoint doesn't require
> authentication so every anonymous user can install arbitrary bundles.
> I would suggest to migrate the endpoint to a [web console
> plugin|https://felix.apache.org/documentation/subprojects/apache-felix-web-console/extending-the-apache-felix-web-console/providing-web-console-plugins.html]
> to benefit from its built in authentication.
