Yeah, exactly this is problem :(

Maybe provide "extension points" in the configuration files? Maybe
someone else has a more "ground-shaking suggestion"? :) But my guts
say that this will be a VERY valuable feature for Karaf since it may
be possible then to start an empty Karaf and simply "upgrade" it to
SMX, or Geronimo or any parts of both you may like to have without
ever toughing a text-editor and all those hassels about jre exports
and bot delegation :(

Thanks and kind regards,
Andreas
