Michael Dürig commented on OAK-387:
-----------------------------------
bq. A better approach would be to keep a reference to the {{ContentSession}} ...
This would work but I'm not convinced this is better since it introduces
additional coupling. Currently the {{Root}} implementation does not have a
dependency on {{ContentSession}}. Maybe we should introduce some kind of a
session life cycle listener here. This might be useful in other places too.

> as far as i know the API contract does currently not specify what happens
> to (the state of) a Root or Tree once the ContentSession has been closed.
> if i am not mistaken, the current implementation would just loose
> the permissions that were granted to the original subject... but that's
> rather a coincidence (and i didn't test it to verify that's really the case)
> possible solutions could be:
> - upon session closure the root/tree becomes invalid (invalidstate) and throws
> - the root/tree are still valid but doesn't have the original permissions
> any more -> default permissions for empty-subject would apply
> - ...
> whatever solution we may prefer in the end, i think that API contract should
> state the expected behavior (even if it was "undefined") and we should have
> tests verifying the current implementation does what we think it should do.
