This is still open, but as far as I can tell, changes have been merged back to core, except for the dubious changes introduced with rev 16566 for "supporting synchronous event listeners". (SynchEventListener inner class, instanciateSynchEventListener method).

This is used in info.magnolia.module.observation.ObservationModule#addListenerConfiguration, which itself seems a little convoluted, and introduces a dependency to Jackrabbit. org.apache.jackrabbit.core.observation.SynchronousEventListener is a markup interface used internally by Jackrabbit (this should be documented), but our SynchEventListener does strictly nothing else than delegating to the given listener.

Since we're targeting a new major version of the observation module, how about finally removing this class altogether ? (and only keep the extra synchronous-stuff, or move that to core as well)

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.
