Look at an experimental branch and its diff against master: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/compare/master...sdedic:origin/bugfix/commitvalidation-fixes3?expand=1

Summary of problem

  • there's NO WAY how to register a service in Editors/ (unspecified mimetype), that would pass current commit-validation
  • the unspecified mimetype ("") was specifically designed to define universal services, for all editors (without that, this is what the entire MIME inheritance is about)
  • once some obscure module eregisters a service in "" MIME type, he is likely to force all distribution modules to use positions in their registrations from that time onwards. Remember: if ANY mimetype uses positions in a specific MIME subfolder, all must use them (in that subfolder).
