Description

Existing applications (as well as the TCK) use the JCR 1.0 query language
"sql". As far as I know, there are only few differences between JCR 1.0 SQL and JCR 2.0 SQL-2. To make old applications work with Oak, I suggest we provide support JCR 1.0 SQL as well. An additional advantage is that more of the existing TCK tests can be run.

I currently don't know if the full JCR 1.0 SQL syntax can be supported (similar to XPath); if we find supporting certain features is too complicated we will document those limitations instead.
