I was actually thinking less about accidentally overwriting, and more about
something like this...
I setup nifi.properties, encrypt it, and everything is good, then I decide
I want to add another encrypted property. Right now you can't run the tool a
second time against an already protected nifi.properties, which makes sense,
but it means you have to manually undo everything if you wanted to add another
protected property.
I'm not hung up on this since it is not very hard to reset the file
manually, just wanted to see what you thought about the reversal/decryption.
I'm ok leaving everything as is for now.
