Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-7934:
-----------------------------------------

I'm still a little bit struggling with how to use this. JsonObject is immutable, so any client code getting this JsonObject that wants to stream a different JSON structure than the one represented by the returned JsonObject needs to do quiet some complex manipulation to get a new JsonObject with the correct structure out of it. It's not possible to remove or add a property without creating a new JsonObject.
In that case creating a JsonObject out of a resource can as easily be done by adapting the resource to a value map, although value map does not support a hierarchy only a flat list of properties. Maybe that's the issue to fix?

> There are multiple implementations all doing the same process of converting a resource to a JSONObject. If it's that common we should just add the ability to adapt the resource and centralize the implementation so that it's consistent.
