>
> assume the following scenario:
> - mixin A declares the mandatory property p
> - mixin A' extends from A
> - node n has mixin A'
> - we'd like to migrate/downgrade node n from mixin A' to A
> currently there's no easy way of replacing the assigned mixins.
> assigning A first results in a NOP since A would be redundant.
> removing A' first removes the mandatory property p.
> a new method setMixins(String[]) would allow to migrate
> a node from mixin A' to A while preserving 'shared' content.
> the semantics of setMixins(String[]) would be similar to
> Node.setPrimaryType(String).
