[jira] Created: (JCR-2774) Access control for repository level API operations

Access control for repository level API operations
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JCR-2774
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2774
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jackrabbit-core
            Reporter: angela


it is a open issue (i guess since jackrabbit 1.0) that the repository level write operations lack any kind of permission check.
this issues has been raised during specification of jsr 283 [1] but didn't made it into the specification (left to implementation).

in jackrabbit 2.0 this affects the following parts of the API

- namespace registration
- node type registration
- workspace creation/removal

based on a issue reported by david ("currently an anonymous user can write the namespace registry which is probably
undesirable [...]"), we could at least add some minimal restrictions. In addition i would like to take up this discussion
for jsr 333.
