Justin Edelson commented on SLING-6187:
---------------------------------------
[~alexander.klimetschek] There's two problems I see with the approach you are
describing (if I am in fact understanding it):
1) There's nothing that requires that SlingPostProcessors operate on @suffix
parameters, so merely checking that the modification list doesn't contain any
@suffix parameters after the operation is complete doesn't guarantee that a
particular SlingPostProcessor was present.
2) It is totally legal for a JCR property name to contain an @ sign, so
checking that the list of modifications for the @ sign is not valid.

>
> I would like to add support for a new "special" request parameter understood
> by the Sling Post Servlet named {{:requiredPostProcessors}}. This parameter
> may contain a comma-delimited list of names (see below) which *must* be
> available *at the time the request is processed* in order for the request to
> be handled. Whether or not those processors _do_ anything or whether the
> request succeeds or not is a separate question; this is just a preflight
> check if you will.
> If any of the required SlingPostProcessors are not available, the request
> will fail with a 501 error.
> The name of a SlingPostProcessor will be defined by a newly defined service
> registration property {{postProcessor.name}} and default to the simple name
> of the SlingPostProcessor's implementation class if that property is not
> defined.
