> Runtime detection currently supports only 'extraction' as a method of installation. It was recently expanded to include not just unzipping of jars, but also extracting .tar.gz files / .tar files / etc.   But there's still no API for completely alternate methods of installation. 
> This JIRA should add an extension point for (basically the plumbing) to allow for alternate installation types in general, as well as add a default java -jar installation method as well. 
> It will be up to other runtimes (ie teiid etc) to USE this functionality in their own products, but it is up to jbt-base to make sure it is feasible at the API level.
