Hi, the JCR Resource implementation currently allows to adapt it to a url which internally embeds several jackrabbit classes. The returned object keeps hold of the current session and therefore is a potential memory leak and can't be used once the session is closed. So far I've not seen any real use case for this and especially as other resource implementations do not provide it, what about deprecating this now, logging a big message when used (once) and then we can remove it in one of the next versions?
