Matt Gilman commented on NIFI-655:
----------------------------------
Just discussed the progress of this ticket with [~joewitt]. Based off that
discussion, we are going to remove support for registration. By supporting
registration, we would be introducing new concerns for managing user profiles,
password change policies, password resets, storage, etc. These policies should
be driven by an organization and not managed in or through NiFi. Instead, we
are going to focus on adding more support for authentication options based on
username/password.
> Provide support for multiple authentication mechanisms
