ah .. so basically it should be possible to hook in the old http binding but 
the plan is to finish this new http binding. meaning if someone wants to use 
the old http binding with oak it will always require a compiling a custom 
package, it will not be a question of changing some configuration setting. so 
in the long run it would be better for us to integrate with the new http api 
but this is currently not mature yet to support what we need.

let me phrase the question slightly differently then ..
how important is the new http api binding to the core oak dev team?
from our understanding 2 years ago, the http api was supposed to have a higher 
priority than it had with jackrabbit 2.x but this is no longer the case?
