You cannot write a decent design from scratch. It's important to have a baseline of functionality to get an idea of scope. The current overlay provides that baseline.
I agree as well on this. Mainly because that’s what _I_ want/need. I do get that some/many (?) people want other things, but starting with the “bare essentials” and build from that is a much smarter idea than sitting down for weeks/month designing “the full monty” and then additional weeks/months implementing it, when the large majority (?) don’t need 90% of all that.
Personally, I think this is a extremely good start. And as soon as time permits, I _will_ make something of it here at work. It’s a hell of a lot better/smarter/simpler than implanting a whole Consul/Vault cluster!
Which doesn’t do what I want anyway...
