Mircea Markus commented on ISPN-2201:
-------------------------------------

An interesting conversation related to flags: http://infinispan.markmail.org/thread/5wdhk6suz2aepf62
This should be approached when re-designing the cache API to be closer to JCache and provide specific methods would make the use of certain Flags unneeded:
e.g. putNoGet instead of cache.getAdvancedCache().withFlag(IGNORE_RETURN_VALUE) etc.

> This confusion is highlighted by ISPN-2187.
> User-level flags, i.e. FORCE_WRITE_LOCK, should be separated from those that are purely internal, i.e. PUT_FOR_EXTERNAL_READ. 
> Obviously, user-level flags might be used for internal purpouses, but by making the separation and putting the internal-only flags separately, we should avoid misuse.
