> Currently it is not allowed to extend the group {{everyone}} by putting it as member to another group. The other way is prevented as well (i.e. putting some group or user as member of the {{everyone}} group) as every other principal is by default member of {{everyone}}. Extending the {{everyone}} group would therefore lead to cycles. Although this is correctly prevented in the code (https://github.com/apache/jackrabbit/blob/adb1e79ae26aba5d068be56e5e9eb562344e5bb9/jackrabbit-core/src/main/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/core/security/user/GroupImpl.java#L156) this is not noticed by the called.
> I would instead suggest to fail more loudly by throwing an exception or at least log a warning.
