[jbpm-dev] [Design of JBoss jBPM] - Allow unlocking Token without knowing the lock owner

Currently the API of the Token is a bit too restrictive:

I can lock a token (with a lock owner) and unlock a token (if I know the lock owner). And I can query IF the token is locked (but not by whom). 

My use case: A jbpm process instance is started by the ESB, it does that in two steps: 1. create PI and lock Token, 2. signal. If in the second signal an exception occurs I may want to trigger the process later manually, but therefor I have to unlock it. 

So I would vote for either a method "forceUnlock()" or at least the possibility to "getLockOwner()".

What do you think? 

I will create a JIRA issue for it as well...
