Jukka Zitting commented on SLING-251:
-------------------------------------
> symlinks are not dynamic.
And configuration is?
The most straightforward solution to having user homes visible in the URL space
is simply to put them within the normal content subtree. Then you need no extra
configuration or symlinks to make them available.
If that is not an option, or if you want vanity URLs or other customization,
you always need to configure such mappings somewhere. Why not do it in the
content tree?

> it would be very practical to have a mapping to 'user homes'. i.e. like the
> unix tilde expansion:
> http://host/~/test
> would resolve to a resource: /home/tripod/test (if the request is
> authenticated as 'tripod').
> i don't think that the reverse mapping is needed.
> the user home root resource (i.e. "/home") needs to be configurable.
> possible default values for the user root are:
> /home
> /users
> /people
> but i prefer "/home"
