angela commented on OAK-6304:
-----------------------------
and {{o.a.j.oak.spi.query.PropertyValues}}: while this class doesn't have any
dependency to query altogether it links the _spi.query_ package space to
_o.a.j.namepath_, which in turn depends on _o.a.j.plugins.name_,
_o.a.j.plugins.tree_ and _o.a.j.plugins.identifier_ as it mixes interfaces with
concrete implementations.

> while working on OAK-6069 i noticed that there exist IMO troublesome
> dependencies from _o.a.j.oak.spi.query_ back to _o.a.j.oak.query.*_. While i
> don't know the historical reasons that led to this setup it feels wrong to me
> that the interfaces and classes in _o.a.j.oak.spi.query_ would have
> dependencies to packages that from my understanding are supposed to contain
> implementations.
> while utilities like {{o.a.j.oak.spi.query.Cursors}} may simply have ended up
> in the wrong bucket and could possibly moved to e.g _o.a.j.query.index_, i
> couldn't find an easy solution for an interface like
> {{o.a.j.oak.spi.query.Filter}} that defines methods returning
> {{o.a.j.query.fulltext.FullTextExpression}} and
> {{o.a.j.query.QueryEngineSettings}}, while at the same time being tied to the
> {{o.a.j.oak.spi.query.QueryIndex}} interface.
