Thomas Mueller commented on OAK-11018:
--------------------------------------

I'm not sure what you mean with "evil" here.

> Manually adding a property with the name jcr:uuid to a non referenceable node 
> might have unexpected effects as Oak maintains an unique index on jcr:uuid 
> properties. As the namespace jcr is reserved, doing so is strongly

I would keep this. Or maybe we can clarify it? I don't know what is unclear 
actually.

>  might have unexpected effects 

Someone might except duplicate UUIDs to work, and a "uniqueness constraint 
violation" would be unexpected for him.

> Manually adding a property with the name jcr:uuid to a non referenceable

I'm not sure what is the motivation for this issue. Do you plan to add such 
properties?

> But the tests for OAK-11000 show that this just works as "expected in Oak"

> Should we remove or rephrase that warning?
