Jukka Zitting commented on JCR-1865:
------------------------------------

My point here is that operations like garbage collection are IMHO not something that a JCR client should be doing, especially when the implementation still doesn't have any access controls and it relies on the client doing the right thing in the multi-repository case.

Nothing that we expose through a client-visible API should be able to break the internal consistency of the repository.

Note that the garbage collection operation is in principle a "safe" operation so I'm not totally opposed to putting it in a client-visible API, but until we either declare the multi-repository data store configuration as unsupported or solve the obvious safety issue with this API I'm quite reluctant to expose such functionality to all clients.

> Currently, the garbage collection is not part of the Jackrabbit API. However, the data store garbage collection must be used once in a while if the data store is enabled. I propose to add the required interfaces to the Jackrabbit API. This will also allow to call garbage collection using RMI.
