/**
* Provides non-atomic read-write access to the part of the tree handled by the
* plugin that created this session.
*
* The {@code nodePath} parameters appearing in this interface always contain an
* array of path segments identifying a node in the subtree of this plugin. This
* parameter contains an absolute path, so the first segment is always
* ".". Special characters appear escaped in the segments.
*
* Error handling
*
* When a tree manipulation command is called on the DmtAdmin service, it must
* perform an extensive set of checks on the parameters and the authority of the
* caller before delegating the call to a plugin. Therefore plugins can take
* certain circumstances for granted: that the path is valid and is within the
* subtree of the plugin and the session, the command can be applied to the
* given node (e.g. the target of {@code setNodeValue} is a leaf node), etc. All
* errors described by the error codes {@link DmtException#INVALID_URI},
* {@link DmtException#URI_TOO_LONG}, {@link DmtException#PERMISSION_DENIED},
* {@link DmtException#COMMAND_NOT_ALLOWED} and
* {@link DmtException#TRANSACTION_ERROR} are fully filtered out before control
* reaches the plugin.
*
* If the plugin provides meta-data for a node, the DmtAdmin service must also
* check the constraints specified by it, as described in {@link MetaNode}. If
* the plugin does not provide meta-data, it must perform the necessary checks
* for itself and use the {@link DmtException#METADATA_MISMATCH} error code to
* indicate such discrepancies.
*
* The DmtAdmin does not check that the targeted node exists (or that it does
* not exist, in case of a node creation) before calling the plugin. It is the
* responsibility of the plugin to perform this check and to throw a
* {@link DmtException#NODE_NOT_FOUND} or
* {@link DmtException#NODE_ALREADY_EXISTS} if needed. In this case the DmtAdmin
* must pass through this exception to the caller of the corresponding
* DmtSession method.
*
* The plugin can use the remaining error codes as needed. If an error does not
* fit into any other category, the {@link DmtException#COMMAND_FAILED} code
* should be used.
