Thinking about splitting up rest-config ....

We ship the rest api out of the box currently I have not heard of any
deployments where people have used our modular system make a distribution
that does not include the rest api?

The thing I like most about splitting up rest-config is it would allow the
application to be more modular. If the rest-api is always present is it
worth adding the "rest-config" into the individual gs-wfs and gs-wms
modules?
