angela commented on JCR-1847:
-----------------------------

> AFAIK BaseException was used for everything in commons, so it has not the 
> same semantics 
> as a (new) "InvalidPathException".

the base exception was used solely inside jackrabbit-core just exactly to deal 
with invalid (malformed) path, unknown names, invalid names, item-state 
exceptions etc. and it was caught again within jackrabbit-core and rethrown as 
RepositoryException (in very exceptional cases a subclass of it) all over the 
place.


> Path methods should throw a specific exception instead of RepositoryEx

> The o.a.j.spi.Path interface declares most methods to throw a RepositoryEx, 
> whereas a o.a.j.spi.commons.conversion.NameEx (or another specific exception) 
> would make more sense, since the RepositoryEx is too generic for what seems 
> to be a "malformed names/path" nature for all things that happen in a Path 
> implementation.
