Look good to me, thanks!

> Two of the OUTER JOIN tests appears to expect incorrect results:
> - 
> org.apache.jackrabbit.test.api.query.qom.EquiJoinConditionTest#testRightOuterJoin1
> - 
> org.apache.jackrabbit.test.api.query.qom.EquiJoinConditionTest#testLeftOuterJoin2
> Both tests are set up the same way: two nodes are created:
>   /testroot/workarea/node1 {jcr:primaryType=nt:unstructured, prop1=yikqysrwur}
>   /testroot/workarea/node1/node2 {jcr:primaryType=nt:unstructured, 
> prop1=yikqysrwur, prop2=yikqysrwur, jcr:mixinTypes=[mix:referenceable], 
> jcr:uuid=c9118bb2-922e-4612-acd7-7152105f5684}
> A single string is randomly generated and used for the values for "prop1" and 
> "prop2", and only the second node is made to be "mix:referenceable". 
> The "testRightOuterJoin1" test runs this query:
>   SELECT * FROM [nt:unstructured] AS left 
>   RIGHT OUTER JOIN [nt:unstructured] AS right 
>   ON left.prop1 = right.prop2 
>   WHERE ISDESCENDANTNODE(right,'/testroot/workarea')
> The left side of the join has at least two tuples (one for "node1", one for 
> "node2", and other nodes which do not have a 'prop1' value), and column of 
> interest is the "prop1" column. Thus the left side tuples (or the parts we 
> care about for the join) look like:
>       [ node1, yikqysrwur ]
>       [ node2, yikqysrwur ]
>       [ …, <null> ]
> The right side of the join has only two tuples ("node1" and "node2") because 
> of the "ISDESCENDANTNODE" criteria, and the only column of interest is the 
> "prop2" column. Thus, the right side tuples (or the parts we care about for 
> the join) look like:
>       [ node1, <null> ]
>       [ node2, yikqysrwur ]
> When we perform a RIGHT OUTER JOIN, we have to **include all the tuples on 
> the right** even if they don't match a value on the left tuples. Thus, 
> "node1" must be included in the results, and because it has a null value for 
> the "prop2" column will not match any of the tuples on the left (since a null 
> value is not equal to another null value in the case of join criteria). So 
> the result set should contain these combinations of nodes:
>       [ null, node1 ]
>       [ node1, node2 ]
>       [ node2, node2 ]
> However, the test expects the following result:
>       [ node1, node2 ]
>       [ node2, node2 ]
> This is incorrect to me, because it is missing the [node1, null] tuple that 
> was on the right side of the join.
