 ]

Jukka Zitting updated JCR-3586:
-------------------------------

    Description: 
It would be useful to have a marker interface like the following in the 
Jackrabbit API:

    interface NonExternalEventListener extends EventListener { }

The observation dispatcher could then avoid delivering any external events to 
that listener.

For backwards compatibility such a listener should still use an "if 
(!event.isExternal()) { ... }" wrapper for event processing. That way the 
listener can avoid processing external events also when registered with an 
older repository that doesn't know about this marker interface.
