As Ricky Saltzer mentioned I also feel dynamic language support increases usability of NiFi. 
I am also thinking implementing ExecuteJavascript with Nashorn to process flowfiles with JSON. I can eazyly manipulate JSON flowfile in JavaScript then with only JSON path. The user supplied anonymous function should have standard signature i.e., should have access to flowfile and attributes and return flowfile?? !

Other, dynamically invoked processor tickets have been linked to that particular item in hopes of providing a consistent approach across this class of extensions.
