Description

Request

I have a custom IFeatureFilter I would like to apply automatically to all features in my application. I don't see a way to do this, short of building a custom IFeatureDefinitionProvider. No problem building an IFeatureDefinitionProvider, it's just unfortunate because the ConfigurationFeatureDefinitionProvider has everything I need besides that. Would it make sense to expose such a feature?

Proposal

Via configuration:

"FeatureManagement": {
   "Default": {
        "EnabledFor": [
            { "Name": "CustomFilter" },
            { "Name": "CustomFilterWithParameters", "Parameters": { "Param1": "Value1" } }
        ]
   }
}

Research direction

Start by reviewing ConfigurationFeatureDefinitionProvider and the proposed FeatureManagement configuration shape. Determine how a configured Default filter set should apply to every feature, and consider the existing IFeatureDefinitionProvider behavior; the work is done when the requested configuration is supported without requiring a custom provider.
