Hi Daniel, Don't know much about JCR transactions (even though I'd like to try it some day, in a scenario similar to yours). In Cayenne you can simply check "Container Managed Transactions", and it won't attempt to commit or rollback connections. From there you can use something like Spring for common management of transactions between Cayenne and JCR.
Would love to hear how that worked. A more clunky way would be to use manual Cayenne transactions or use a TransactionDelegate, and figure out how to hook this up to Jackrabbit: http://cayenne.apache.org/doc/understanding-transactions.html I'd try Spring first.
