I talked this over with @markap14 as well, it seems like just adding an
attribute here is a better user experience than adding another property to
offer a choice. I presume it was to offer the current behavior as well, which
normally is a good thing so as not to upset existing flows, but I think in this
case you could just add it (and document it). New attributes on split flowfiles
might affect memory, but for merged flow files it should not be an issue. What
do you think?
