Michael Dürig commented on OAK-189:
-----------------------------------
This is another example for why I think checked exceptions are not worth it. It
forces exceptions to be handled in places where nothing can be done about them.
So they are just ignored...

> Exceptions should not be silently swallowed. This is currently done in
> SessionDelegate$SessionNameMapper, methods getOakPrefix(),
> getOakPrefixFromURI(), and getJcrPrefix(). Those methods catch
> RepositoryException, don't log by default (only when using debug level), and
> don't log the exception stack trace or throw an exception.
> Catching a very wide band of exceptions (RepositoryException) and then simply
> returning null is not an acceptable solution in my view.
