> with the introduction of a special index for (weak)references by OAK-1137, they are only indexed if a reference property is written, but not if a weak reference target is added later on.
> see {{org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.jcr.ReferencesTest#testWeakReferencesAddLater}} that fails currently.
> the only workaround is to re-set the weak reference property after adding the referenceable node. 
> looking at this regression, I don't think that the current approach of storing the back references is a good one as it does not work for this case. IMO a separate index of all reference properties, grouped by UUID of the target referenceable needs to be kept outside of the normal tree.
