David Jencks commented on KARAF-934:
------------------------------------

Lets also consider lining up karaf feature support more with what's in the osgi 
subsystem spec.  There, a subsystem (including a feature) is a jar with some 
manifest-like files indicating its contents (and isolation, etc etc).  In 
particular there isn't an idea of a "feature repository" containing several 
features.  I think you can represent a "feature repository" with an obr xml 
repository document, but I haven't tried.

>From this point of view, the problem is that we should be using features 
>rather than feature repositories.  Then its pretty clear what to do if you 
>deploy a single feature.
                
> Provide a way to select which features are to be installed when dropping a 
> descriptor to the deploy folder.

> Currently when dropping a feature in the deploy folder it automatically 
> starts all features (including transient).
> However, there are cases that the use doesn't want to install all of them. We 
> need to provide a way to select which of the features are to be installed.
