-----------------------------------------
Solving issue (2) (applying an operation to multiple items) has been spun-off
into SLING-464
> Enhance SlingPostServlet for multiple operations

> Key: SLING-458

> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Servlets Post
> Reporter: Felix Meschberger
> Assignee: Felix Meschberger
>
> After implementing SLING-422, the SlingPostServlet can only execute one
> single operation. It shows that some times, it is required to actually
> evaluate multiple operations. Some examples:
> (1) A CMS system provides a dialog to modfiy existing content. One such
> content element is stored in a multivalue property represented in the dialog
> as a series of checkbox. If the user checks no checkboxes the respective
> request parameter is not sent to the server and out of the box the property
> will not be touched. In this case it would be required to remove the
> respective property before actually modifying the existing content. So in
> addition to the modification operation, a delete operation must be executed.
> (2) In some administration application, an operation such as moving items may
> be applied to multiple items at once. So having a way of specifying all such
> items at once would be required.
> Both use cases require multiple requests after the SLING-422 implementation.
> The goal is to come up with a solution, which is simple out of the box but
> provides more functionality if really required.
