I really don't like adding more apis in the bridge, couldn't you have a AnnotationStorage component interface you implements in xwiki-core instead like we do for wiki macros for example. Plus AnnotationStorage also mean easily change the way/place annotations are stored latter so it could be useful anyway. Also i'm -1 for the saveDocument methods anyway, we already talked about that in previous discussions and it was decided that bridges methods should be atomic and not keep unfinished things until someone apply it. > > Also, since XWikiDocument.getRenderedContent() gets more and more used by > various access API to XWiki (GWT, XMLRPC, etc), I propose to add to DAB: > > getRenderedContent(DocumentName docName, String text, Syntax > sourceSyntax, > Syntax finalSyntax) > > which would call XWikiDocument.getRenderedContent() but also > xwiki.prepareResources() before so that the msg tools are initialized too > (hoping this would help to programatically render a document as similar as > possible with what is obtained through the view action & templates).
