just a random thought. Drop In Lib packs... All the Hadoop ones in one package for example that can be added to a slim Nifi install. Another may be for Cloud, or Database Interactions, Integration (JMS, FTP, etc) of course defining these groups would be the tricky part... Or perhaps some type of installer which allows you to elect which packages to download to add to the slim install?
