>
> for me it looks like that there is currently no way to extend an existing 
> configuration file by installing a feature. But this is, what I would need 
> for my use case and what would be great IMHO for other users as well.
> Here is my idea.
> If a property already exists within a configuration file this property should 
> not be changed. But if a configuration file does not contain a certain key, 
> this key=value should be added at the end of the configuration file.
> Example:
> <config name="com.foo.bar">
>   myProperty = myValue
> </config>
> If com.foo.bar.cfg does not contain myProperty before the feature containing 
> this example was installed, then myProperty=myValue should be added to 
> com.foo.bar.cfg file.
> This would make it possible to extend existing configuration files for custom 
> needs. A general use-case could be logging. My application would like to add 
> a logger configuration in case this logger is not configured already.
> 2. Example
> <config name="org.ops4j.pax.logging">
>   log4j.logger.org.apache.activemq.broker.util.LoggingBrokerPlugin=INFO, 
> stdout, osgi:VmLogAppender
> </config>
