 Description   

This is a major change, which should bring the following advantages:

  • easier to wrap a ForumManager or other component, for instance to make it "cache" values.
  • likewise, allow other implementations to (partially) use other data sources than the repository.
  • simplify templates, abstract them from the knowledge of the data structure.
  • simplify the API in general, for the same reason.

It should still be possible to use extra "properties" on nodes, for instance by subclassing those new beans.

Given the thousands of other issues we have open that are more highly requested, we won't be able to address this issue in the foreseeable future. Instead we will focus on issues with a higher impact, and more votes.
Thanks for taking the time to raise this issue. As you are no doubt aware this issue has been on our backlog for some time now with very little movement.
I'm going to close this to set expectations so the issue doesn't stay open for years with few updates. If the issue is still relevant please feel free to reopen it or create a new issue.
