> The JCR Specification says (at least in Section 6.7.10):
>     "Which NodeType is returned when this method is called on the root node of a workspace is up to the implementation, 
>     though the returned type must, of course, be consistent with the child nodes and properties of the root node."
> Although some of the examples (e.g, Section 6.6.1) show the primary type for the root node being "nt:unstructured".  While this is probably a good simple example, defining a DNA-specific node type would allow us to say the following:
> 1) the root node is autocreated
> 2) the root node is not autoprotected
> 3) the root node can have any properties
> 4) the root node is mix:referenceable (which says the "jcr:uuid" property is mandatory, autocreated and protected)
> 5) the root node allows any children, including allowing same-name-siblings
> 6) the root node always has a "jcr:system" child node that does not allow same-name-siblings, and that has its own type (again the spec says the type is implementation specific) that also is auto-created and protected
