Unsupported Add-On features would be one way to deal with things like
this. IMO we should not be producing unsupported Layered Distributions.
(See
https://community.jboss.org/wiki/LayeredDistributionsAndModulePathOrganiz...
for the definition of these terms.)
For a feature to work as an add-on, it needs to somehow be integrated.
Currently that would have to be via an extension/subsystem.
That's way too much
trouble because it takes a lot of effort to create a
new subsystem versus 2 lines of code to add it to the existing one.
How are things going with simplifying subsystem development?
