Stefan Seifert commented on SLING-13374:
----------------------------------------
i'm wondering if that's the right way to go.
i only had a very brief look ad the redirects implementation in acs commons -
is this related to context-aware configuration at all? yes, it stores config
data below /conf, which is fine. but if it does not has any related content
resources, thus not relying context, inheritance and all the features of
caconfig - why use it for this use case? why not just implement a sling model
for that data structure and be done?
if we open the API in this way, i see the risk people misuse it in a way never
intended to be used.

> Currently high level configuration objects can only be retrieved from the
> context (i.e. content resources). Some edge cases require deriving it
> directly from a given configuration resource.
> Currently the whole converter logic is private part of
> [https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-caconfig-impl/blob/master/src/main/java/org/apache/sling/caconfig/impl/ConfigurationBuilderImpl.java]

> My use case is

> where configuration values should be retrieved based on a given
> configuration resource.
