> Hi,
> As you know, I have run into an issue with the backup tool using the WorkspaceImporter. I ended up copy/pasting large body of code since the current WorkspaceImporter was not flexible enough for my use (in my class called SysViewImporter). This solution was perfectly valid for Google SoC (a lot of time constraints) but unacceptable in the long run for any project (we hate large body of duplicate code :p).
> Also, some issues have been raised with this class (i.e. jcr:root importation, allowsSameNameSiblings issue). 
> Overall I feel this class  is circumvoluted and really hard to understand. For instance, the current code contains at most 5 imbricated if and uses a lot of different ways to pass information (stacks, objects set on null). 
> I tried to refactor my SysViewImporter and the WorkspaceImporter but it implies a new code for the WorkspaceImporter and the SysViewImporter. Here is its skeleton! I first wanted to gather the community feedback before stepping in. I tried moving all "work code" away from the startNode method and reorganise it for readilibility.
> Please give me your feedback.
