Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-4461:
------------------------------------------

As commented in SLING-4312 the first fallback approach can be solved by the 
slightly more complicated setup as proposed by Carsten. 

The global default can be implemented by registering a special kind of 
ServiceUserMapping marker service which is passed through by the 
ServiceUserMappingBundleFilter and thus matches references.

Finally: How about a new Felix DS annotation extending @Reference to simplify 
setting the reference target ? Such that service could just do

* @ServiceMapping(subService="theName") ==> 
"|((!(subServiceName=*))(subServiceName=foo))"
* @ServiceMapping() ==> "!(subServiceName=*)"


> Remove fallbacks for service users resolution

>
> ServiceUserMapperImpl has several levels of fallback for service user 
> resolution (fallback to bundle default, or to global default). While this 
> offers a lot of flexibility, it introduces non-determinism in a security 
> feature. If defaults are set, it can happen (especially at startup) that code 
> is executed using different serviceUsers, e.g. a component can execute using 
> the bundle default or global default until its specific subService is 
> available, and it can be easily imagined how this can cause subtle errors.
