---------------------------------------
Also, both Joe and I noticed on very rare occasion there is some double
precision voodoo going on (see below), but can't really reproduce it
intentionally

Given that this is a side issue to the main one we should address it the moment
we can reproduce it, essentially making it a minor task

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-826
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core Framework
> Reporter: Matt Gilman
> Assignee: Oleg Zhurakousky
> Fix For: 1.0.0
>
>
> Templates should be exported in a deterministic way so that they can be
> compared or diff'ed with another. Items to consider...
> - The ordering of components
> - The id's used to identify the components
> - Consider excluding irrelevant items. When components are imported some
> settings are ignored (run state).
