Hi Mike

Fully agree, I just wanted to remind that CDI is a good think, but
considering ecosystem/plugins is also key (and indeed decoupled from
CDI).

I think we already have a kind of consensus about CDI, and agree to
move forward here with improvement of the current codebase.

The reason why I mention runtime framework ecosystem/plugins is
because we already have some PRs/discussions related to that (and
somehow overlapping with runtime framework support): dynamic config,
metadata storage, OIDC, ...
By leveraging runtime framework capabilities, we will focus our effort
on the Polaris new/core features.

+1 about populating the table and migration path.

I will rebase the Quarkus PR and share a document with the tables you
created (let's use the Polaris proposal process ;)).

Thanks !
Regards
JB
