Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-8110:
--------------------------------------------
I have suggested on our dev list using a new {{sling.servlet.resolution =
strict}} service property to activate the "extensions" and "methods" properties
when resolving path-mounted servlets, to keep backwards compatibility while
enabling the stricter behavior.
I don't think taking "selectors" into account is really useful but that's a
detail, my key concern at this point is how to manage backwards compatibility.
Let's see what people think.

> Key: SLING-8110
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8110
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Servlets
> Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz
> Assignee: Bertrand Delacretaz
> Priority: Minor
>
> If a Sling Servlet has both _paths_ and _extensions_ service properties,
> currently the _paths_ take over and the _extensions_ are ignored.
> This has caused confusion with users who have set both properties on a
> servlet - my initial thought was to reject such illegal combinations, but a
> colleague rightly notes that it would make sense to honor the _extensions_
> property as well, and only route requests to that servlet if there's a match
> on the extension.
> This requires more analysis, for now I'm just creating this ticket to remind
> us to have another look.
