Tim,

It is certainly feasible/interesting but it would require a lot of legwork
to extract and make it into its own thing that then is used by NiFi and
then other things.  We could spawn it into its own subproject to facilitate
perhaps..

Such ideas are often tough to pursue though as it might be too tied to NiFi
specifically (not sure that it is) and it requires spending a good bit of
time not specific to NiFi (not always easy to build that
momentum/community).

Definitely understand your idea and I think it is cool you'd suggest it.  I
suspect though you'll have to be in position to help do heavy lifting to
make it a thing.

Thanks
Joe
