Michael Dürig commented on JCR-3465:
------------------------------------
The current Javadoc for the path parameter says: "relative path to create". So,
no it shouldn't fail according to the current contract. Also AFAIU the
intention of the function was to have a method to get a node at a certain path
without having to worry about non existing nodes on that path since these would
just be created.
> JcrUtils.getOrCreateByPath() creates a whole subtree instead of a single
> branch

> Given a leaf node n,
> JcrUtils.getOrCreateByPath(n, "a/b/../../c/d/../../e/f", false, null, null,
> true);
> will result in paths a/b, c/d and e/f being added to n where I'd only expect
> the path e/f.
