Hi,

The query engine in oak-core needs to normalize paths and names (convert ".=
/name" to "name"), for example for the TCK test org.apache.jackrabbit.test.=
api.query.qom.NodeNameTest.testURILiteral. I don't see a way to do the norm=
alization within oak-jcr. The component that seems to be able to do that is=
 NamePathMapper.

I think there are two options: either add the NamePathMapper as a parameter=
 to (the oak-core API method) QueryEngine.executeQuery, or add the NamePath=
Mapper to (the oak-core interface) ContentSession. But I guess that would m=
ean it needs to be added as a parameter to ContentRepository.login, which s=
eems to be a bit strange.

So I will add it as a parameter to QueryEngine.executeQuery.

In the near future, the query engine will also need to evaluate node type i=
nformation (also in oak-core). The method executeQuery will get at least on=
e additional parameter, so will have 8 parameters in total. One alternative=
 would be to keep the node type information and name path mapper in Content=
Session. But I guess that's not what you guys want to do, right?

Regards,
Thomas
