Stefan Egli commented on OAK-4898:
----------------------------------
+1
besides allowing the additional infos mentioned, I think we should change the
logic to have CommitInfo never be null - even in the overflow case - with the
same arguments in that it would allow to pass state between/to Observers.
> Allow for external changes to have a CommitInfo attached

> Fix For: 1.6

>
> Currently the observation logic relies on fact that CommitInfo being null
> means that changes are from other cluster node i.e. external changes.
> We should change this semantic and provide a different way to indicate that
> changes are external. This would allow a NodeStore implementation to still
> pass in a CommitInfo which captures useful information about commit like
> brief summary on what got changed which can be used for pre filtering
