Konrad Windszus commented on SLING-10538:
-----------------------------------------

My concern is that the same configuration files/content packages behave 
differently depending on the this flag. This is e.g. an issue for 
libraries/implementations which target different platforms, e.g. 
https://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/index.html or 
https://adobe-consulting-services.github.io/acs-aem-commons/index.html.
Those use cases would require an opt-in to this feature per configuration, WDYT?

In any case, if we stick with this feature flag we need to document it at 
https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/configuration-installer-factory.html
 probably with some sentences around the former handling and priorities of 
configurations...

> Today, the installer support for configurations applies a configuration as a 
> unit. While this is useful for many use cases, there are use cases where for 
> example an application provides an ootb OSGi configuration and the 
> customization of that configuration should only contain the changed 
> properties but not repeat all properties from the application.
