[jira] [Created] (SLING-9786) Use pre-authentication for system users

Robert Munteanu created SLING-9786:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Use pre-authentication for system users
                 Key: SLING-9786
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-9786
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Starter
            Reporter: Robert Munteanu
            Assignee: Robert Munteanu
             Fix For: Starter 12


Oak [pre-authenticated login|https://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/security/authentication/preauthentication.html] without repository involvement presents a number of advantages:

- it is faster since the repository is not involved
- allows mapping a single principal to the repositories of multiple service users, making ACLs easier to define in a fine-grained manner

We should therefore switch the starter to the pre-auth setup for service users.
