This would still be done via supplements, in a similar way to how it is
done at the moment. I think when you define a new file such as
standalone-ha.xml you will also be able to supply supplement names to
modify the config.

What about the next iteration where, say you have the EE feature pack
and you add the clustering feature.
Say, the clustering feature will add jgroups and infinispan subsystems, which is in line
with what you say.
However, with clustering enabled, IIRC that enables some extra things in e.g. the EJB
subsystem.
