    https://github.com/apache/incubator-metron/pull/500
  
    Just pushed out a commit that runs the REST service as the metron user and 
added configurable log and pid directories.
    
    @justinleet, I tried setting cardinality 0+ and changed the component to a 
Slave.  While this did make it optional, it feels a little awkward for it to be 
listed as a 1/1 Slave component and the quick link no longer works.  Still not 
sure how we handle this.  I see 3 options:  
    
    - we hold this PR up until the REST kerberos work is done
    - we include it but document that it's not supported in a kerberized 
environment
    - we continue investigating ways to make it optional
