Glen Mazza commented on KARAF-779:
----------------------------------
It's not just top or bottom--since you can have multiple sources of custom info
data you'll probably want the ability to arrange the multiple sources as well.
Perhaps a priority level should be added to both the Karaf-Info manifest entry
and the InfoProvider interface (the two ways to add custom information right
now).
There are many ways to do the priority numbering. Here's one possibility: the
current Karaf default info would have always have a priority of zero, anything
you want "on top" would have a negative priority number (the more negative, the
more "on top"), anything you'd want at the bottom would have a positive
priority number (the larger the number the more at the bottom.) If not
provided, the default priority level for any custom info would be "1", meaning
it's placed at the end of the standard info. Further the specific ordering of
any custom info sharing the same priority is undefined -- customs infos with
the same priority can go in any order alongside other custom infos that share
the same priority level.
With just one person requesting this, the above is quite possibly overkill.
OTOH this is functionality that enhances Karaf's branding capabilities.
