Hi, sorry for getting back to this a bit late....
There was an off-list discussion among some core oak commiters which concluded that: * checkpoint bean should only be exposed by global node store (opened OAK-7699 [0] for this) * we should formalize responsibilities of a node store implementation instead of discovering issues after the fact (opened OAK-7700 [1] for this) [0]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-7699 [1]: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-7700 Thanks, Vikas
