@alopresto These refactorings look good. The backward compatibility support
for legacy configurations is also solid. One minor thing I'd like to
investigate further if we can remove the dependency between the
nifi-security-utils and the nifi-properties-loader. The nifi-security-utils are
referenced and pulled into many NARs and the additional dependency would
introduce further duplication of the nifi-properties-loader jar (and it's
transitive dependencies not already included). This dependency is only used to
load the master key from the bootstrap.conf. While it's not a showstopper, it
would be nice if we didn't need this additional dependency and instead allowed
the client of the nifi-security-utils provide the master key when necessary.
Thanks
