Sure! How would I do that?

> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Thomas Mueller
> Assignee: Thomas Mueller
>
> Unlike Jackrabbit 2.x, indexes in the Oak query engine are user defined, that
> means data is only indexed if there is a matching index. Those indexes are
> then automatically used for the appropriate queries. The current plan is to
> define indexes as nodes within a repository. An index is created if an index
> metadata node is created, and the index is removed if the index metadata node
> is removed. The index content is automatically updated if the content changes
> (either synchronously or asynchronously).
> The location and structure of the index metadata needs to be defined and
> documented.
> Also, to simplify defining and managing indexes, it may make sense to write a
> utility (helper class) for managing indexes. Internally, this utility uses
> the regular JCR API and accesses the documented index metadata nodes.
