minimal - Install a very minimal build (disables, for example, plugins,
fonts, most drivers, non-critical features)
vanilla - Do not add extra patches which change default behaviour
The way you understand "minimal" seems to be closer to what "vanilla" is
used for. By "feature additions" I assume that you mean "extra
functionality added by patches".
Note the subtle difference -- "minimal" disables default functionality
(provided upstream) while "vanilla" disables patched-in functionality.
Of course, there is the "server" use flag that mysql could use with
great success.
