             Summary: Remove fallbacks for service users resolution
                 Key: SLING-4461
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4461
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Service User Mapper
            Reporter: Marius Petria


ServiceUserMapperImpl has several levels of fallback for
service user resolution (fallback to bundle default, or to global
default). While this offers a lot of flexibility, it introduces non-determinism 
in a security feature. If defaults are set, it can
happen (especially at startup) that code is executed using different
serviceUsers, e.g. a component can execute using the bundle default or
global default until its specific subService is available, and it can be
easily imagined how this can cause subtle errors.
