             Summary: Allow option to expose nested authorizable properties as child resources
                 Key: SLING-11034
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11034
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Eric Norman
            Assignee: Eric Norman
             Fix For: JCR Jackrabbit User Manager 2.2.18


When nested properties are set on a user or group, it is not convenient to read those property values from the AuthorizableResource without writing extra code.

Expected:

For any nested authorizable properties, provide a NestedAuthorizableResource child resource for each of the property containers.

For example to get a user with it's direct children:
{code:java}
$ curl http://localhost:8080/system/userManager/user/myuser.tidy.1.json{code}
Or to access the a "private" nested properties child directly:
{code:java}
$ curl http://localhost:8080/system/userManager/user/myuser/private.tidy.json{code}
 

This capability should be able to be turned on or off via configuration.  Probably off by default for backward compatibility.
