 * A observer configuration describes active configurations from registered listeners.

 * have exactly the same parameters.
 *
 * A resource provider implementation observation must support sending remove
 * events as explained in {@link org.apache.sling.api.resource.observation.ResourceChangeListener}.
 * If an observer configuration contains a pattern or is limited to a sub tree,
 * removal events not matching the pattern or removing events of parents of
 * that sub tree must be provided to the listener nevertheless - if the
 * listener is interested in resource remove events.
