> as discussed in SLING-10011 it would be desirable to allow for retrieval of a Item's parent without having to deal with the exceptions that are thrown by {{Item.getParent()}} in case the parent does not exist or is not accessible.
> I would like to suggest to introduce {{JackrabbitSession.getParentOrNull(Item item)}}, which would return a {{Node}} or null. For backwards compatibility the new method should come with a default implementation that calls {{Item.getParent()}} and returns null in case of {{AccessDeniedException}} as it is thrown by _oak-jcr_ if there is no accessible parent or {{ItemNotFoundException}} in case of the root node.
