Hi,
I am trying to fix "commit-validation" test that (among other things)
ensures some consistency in registration layers, in particular order of
registrations in MIME Lookup.
The explanation got terribly long, so I put up a Wiki page, see
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/File+Ordering+Change+proposal
for full details.
Short summary:
- there's NO WAY how to register a service in Editors/ (unspecified
mimetype), that would pass current commit-validation
- the unspecified mimetype ("") was specifically designed to define
universal services, for all editors (without that, this is what the
entire MIME inheritance is about)
- once some obscure module registers a service in "" MIME type, it is
likely to force all distribution modules to use positions in their
registrations from that time onwards.
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:
* Change test
* Define positions in the whole codebase + maintain
* Improve FileUtil.getOrder() contract
Again, please see
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/File+Ordering+Change+proposa
for all the details.

Please share your thoughts, help me select (or discover) the best (or at
least effective) solution.
Thanks,
