>
> Currently anonymous access caused by missing credentials in the request is
> granted using the underlying repository's notion of anonymous user. This is
> achieved by calling ResourceResolverFactory.getResourceResolver with a null
> argument.
> Sometimes, though, it may be the case, that the underlying
> ResourceProvider(s) do not grant access for null credentials. One such case
> might be a jackrabbit repository whose anonymous user has been disabled and
> Repository.login with null credentials would fail.
> As discussed on the dev [1] and users [2] list, it might be helpful to be
> able to configure user name and password for assumed anonymous access.
