I'd like to make this change:
Add to xwiki.api.Document
saveAsAuthor()
saveAsAuthor(String comment)
saveAsAuthor(String connent, String isMinorEdit)
deleteAsAuthor()
Add to xwiki.api.XWiki
getDocumentAsAuthor(DocumentReference reference)
getDocumentAsAuthor(String fullName)
I created an issue for it and posted a patch
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-5041
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/secure/attachment/16920/XWIKI-4952-CommentAddAct…
The context user is momentarily switched to the content author of the document in the
context before doing
the action.
I think the script editor should be responsible for the api method calls because they can
only be called
from script. I also see a lot of potential benefit in allowing a script to manipulate
documents which it's
viewers cannot save. I think this will reduce the amount of pages requiring programming
rights.
WDYT?
