With the disclaimer that this is sliding out of oak-dev into AEM-
specific stuff and should be moved to an Adobe-specific discussion

Make sure to validate that the DAM UI works at the Sling resource level
and not at the JCR level. If I plug in a remote ResourceProvider and
the AEM DAM works at the JCR level, it won't be able to see the data
you grafted.
