Carsten Ziegeler resolved SLING-2425.
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Just checked the latest resource.jcr release. The test fail there as well,
therefore I'm now closing this
> Incorrect and inconsistent escaping of property names used in JcrPropertyMap

> The JcrPropertyMap uses the (wrong) ISO9075 encoding for property names, and
> this also behaves differently between the read() and readFully() variants.
> 1) ISO9075 is needed for XML names, e.g. for mapping JCR names into Xpath
> queries. But the set of valid JCR names is much larger (for example "-" is
> valid, while it is not allowed in ISO9075 and becomes "_x002d_").
> org.apache.jackrabbit.util.Text#escapeIllegalJcrChars() must be used instead
> to escape any string for use as JCR names. [0]
> 2) Inconsistency:
> a) read() will take the key and use ISO9075#encodePath(), before looking up
> the jcr property using the encoded variant
> b) readFully() will go through all jcr properties and cache them with the key
> using ISO9075#decode()
> Hence for all valid JCR names, which are not valid under ISO9075 (like
> "1_prop", "-foo"), these can be looked up using the cached variant b) (as
> decode() won't touch them), while they cannot be looked up using read() at
> all due to the forced "arbitrary" escaping.
> I think there should be no auto-magically escaping at all (also not in the
> accompanying JcrModifiablePropertyMap). Incorrect naming errors should simply
> be passed through, it is the job of the application to handle that. The
> framework should not run an arbitrary & undocumented escaping, if it cannot
> enforce that anyway, since there are other ways to create properties with a
> different valid char set (using the JCR API).
