    Seems like this could be useful, and certainly doesn't hurt.  +1 from me.

> I wanted to change the location of the bootstrap config file which can be done using the System property {{org.apache.nifi.bootstrap.config.file}}. Unfortunately there's no easy way to set that using the default {{nifi.sh}} script.
> It can be done using the {{BOOTSTRAP_DEBUG_PARAMS}} environment variable but that doesn't feel right and can break if anyone actually uses that variable.
> I suggest adding an optional environment variable {{BOOTSTRAP_JAVA_OPTS}} that can be used to pass in extra options to Java
