Hmm, I would ignore the classpath, this is not manageable....
Environmentconfiguration is ok, provided it is based on well-known mechanisms
such as system properties (dangerous in certain app server environments such as
WebSphere) or configuration properties (ok if based on the sling.properties and
its extensions mechanis)
> Launchpad war should optionally use an external Repository, without requiring
> a change of bundles

> It would be useful to allow the Launchpad to use an external Repository
> (accessed via JNDI or RMI), without having to modify the war file or
> load/unload bundles.
> I'll search for a solution along these lines:
> 1) Launchpad includes both the jackrabbit-server (embedded repository) and
> jackrabbit-client (access to external repositories via JNDI or RMI) bundles,
> but by default the jackrabbit-client does not provide a Repository.
> 2) At startup, the Sling class searches the classpath and/or environment for
> additional configuration properties
> 3) A specific configuration property prevents the jackrabbit-server bundle
> from providing a Repository, and lets the jackrabbit-client provide it.
> In this way, the web container could be setup in advance to define which
> Repository to use, and new releases of the launchpad war file could be
> dropped in without requiring any configuration or war file changes.
