Description

JCR 2.0 clarifies node type attribute subtyping rules whereas JCR 1.0 didn't mandate any specific behavior.

"3.7.6.7 Node Type Attribute Subtyping Rules" states (assume T' being a subtype of T):

• if T has orderable child nodes then T' must have orderable child nodes
• if T specifies a primary item then T' inherits that setting and must not override it
