--------------------------------------

             Summary: Forced Metadata transformation connector would be a nice addition
                 Key: CONNECTORS-955
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONNECTORS-955
             Project: ManifoldCF
          Issue Type: Task
    Affects Versions: ManifoldCF 1.7
            Reporter: Karl Wright
            Assignee: Karl Wright
             Fix For: ManifoldCF next


When transformations are available, forced metadata most naturally fits in as a standalone transformation connector.  We should develop one, and deprecate the Forced Metadata tab.

A larger issue is how to handle deprecations of features in the long run.  The choices are:

- feature continues to exist intact
- feature continues to exist, but there's something special you have to do to make it visible (i.e. in the UI)
- feature simply goes away at some point, breaking backwards compatibility
