This PR https://github.com/apache/openwhisk/pull/4559 added init-time parameters. It allows those parameters to be specified on action creation/updates as well as at invoke time.
This note is to solicit feedback on whether the controller should disallow init-parameters at invoke time. The reason is that unless the activation is a fresh (cold) activation, the init-parameters will not be observable by the action (init-paramters are only sent at /init time and not /run time). So it can be confusing although it is also convenient for rapid iterations in the cloud (update/invoke pattern where the invoke is always cold after an update). Opinions and feedback? -r
