I didn't see the JIRA, so I'm copying the dev list.
It was removed because the semantic was unclear. Users were expecting to
pass in an absolute file and then have the AS write back to that file.
We're not going to support writing outside the configuration/ dir and
never intended to.
I agree though that completely eliminating this was not the best
solution, as there's a good use case for it. Besides the testing issue,
some folks don't like the AS overwriting the config file in the first
place, so passing in a config file in a non-writable location is a
workaround solution for them.
My thoughts on this were to allow an --initial-server-config (for
standalone) and --initial-domain-config and --initial-host-config (for
domain). They would allow absolute paths. Their names and documentation
would indicate their contents are read when the process is first started
and thereafter are ignored.
