             Summary: Configuration option for allowed authorizable properties 
mixin types
                 Key: OAK-9675
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-9675
             Project: Jackrabbit Oak
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core, security-spi
            Reporter: Eric Norman
             Fix For: 1.44.0


This is in support of a use case where we want a stricter constraint on what is 
allowed to be stored in an authorizable property.  The unstructured property 
definition from rep:Authorizable is too permissive for the use case.  Defining  
and using a mixin with a property definition that has a value constraint 
defined solves most of the use case, but  after doing that then the property is 
no longer visible in the authorizable properties.

Basically, the current implementation of 
AuthorizablePropertiesImpl#getAuthorizableProperty will exclude any properties 
whose property definition is not declared by the rep:Authorizable node type.  
This means property definitions that are defined by any mixin type are excluded.

The proposed improvement here is to add an optional configuration property that 
would define the names of mixin types that are allowed to define authorizable 
properties.  Any property definition defined by a mixin type in this set would 
be included, and anything else would be excluded as before.
