------------------------------------------
> Configuration API should have a way to allow empty configurations
> -----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SLING-10494
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-10494
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Feature Model
> Affects Versions: Feature Model API Regions Extension 1.3.0
> Reporter: Karl Pauls
> Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: Feature Model API Regions Extension 1.3.2
>
>
> The way the Configuration API currently handles configurations (and factory
> configurations) is that an empty entry means don't allow. In other words,
> listing an empty configuration (factory) is the same as marking it as
> internal-configuration(-factory).
> That makes sense in as far as that makes it nicer to be able to specify
> configurations that are not allowed inline with the other configurations -
> however, it misses a case where it is now impossible to allow an empty
> configuration.
> That could be problematic as sometimes, empty configurations are used to
> configure e.g. services - that use case would at a minimum now not show up in
> the Configuration API as one would be forced not to mention the configuration
> at all in order to allow somebody to still be able to create an empty
> configuration.
