----------------------------------------

             Summary: Converter ignores access control content in .content.xml files
                 Key: SLING-10760
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-10760
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Content-Package to Feature Model Converter
            Reporter: Angela Schreiber


[~kpauls], while trying to find more edge cases that could fall cause SLING-10754, i noticed that not only sibling nodes but also access control content (like e.g. _rep:policy_ nodes) contained in a _.content.xml_ get installed by Jackrabbit Filevault even if those nodes are not covered by the corresponding {{WorkspaceFilter}}.

It also seems that these package 'entries' are not spotted by the converter and thus the dedicated {{EntryHandler}} implementations that are intended to analyze and convert special content like e.g. access control (but probably not limited to that) are not triggered.

In other words: content hidden in _.content.xml_ will not be properly converted but will be installed even if not covered by _filter.xml_ associated with the content package. I don't know if that actually intended behavior of Jackrabbit FileVault (the documentation clearly stating that everything should be covered by filter rules [0], section 'Usage for Import/Installation'), but if it is correct it might in the worse case require the converter to parse all _.content.xml_ files and delegate to the proper handler implementations.

[~kwin], I would appreciate your input on the FileVault related question of this ticket. In particular: is it correct and intended that subnodes defined in _.content.xml_ get installed even if not covered by any filter rule?
