Hi Betrand Agreed. I took a quick glimpse at the code for SLING-2986. My impression is, that the two contributions should be largely complementary.
The focus of SLING-1778 is currently about "mounting" existing resource (sub-)trees to arbitrary locations in the resource tree. The merging aspect is currently on per-node granularity (IIRC). In SLING-2986, the merging aspect seems to have been the main focus (e.g. sling:hideProperties etc.).
