Michael Dürig commented on JCR-2688:
------------------------------------

So I see four option for the unit tests:

1. Move above utility classes along with the unit test into their own module
2. Add the unit tests to jackrabbit-core
3. Add the unit tests to jcr-commons but run them during the core build. Needs 
a jcr-commons test artifact
4. Do away with the unit tests all together

Although 1. is the cleanest way I don't like it since we have enough modules 
already. 
4. is bad
For 2. I think jackrabbit-core is the wrong place. Unit tests always have a 
documentation aspect. People just wont look for them in core.
So I think we are left with 3. Which is not a bright solution neither.

> Jackrabbit does not cope well with 'flat' hierarchies. That is with 
> hierarchies where a node has many child nodes and/or properties. The current 
> recommendation for such situations is to manually add intermediate nodes. 
> It would be nice to have an utility which adds/removes intermediate nodes as 
> needed and expose a 'flat' view to users. Such an utility should:
> - expose a large number of nodes/properties as sequence
> - parametrize the order of how nodes/properties appear in the sequence
> - provide methods to lookup/add/remove nodes/properties by key 
> - organize the node/properties in the underlying JCR hierarchy in a way which 
> is both efficient for above operations and easily understandable to users 
> looking at the hierarchy.
