    Description

      Sometimes we cannot configure the used port for a HTTPService up front, so it would be nice to have the service select one itself; the chosen port would then have to be communicated to the outside world. Since it should not just select any random port e.g. for security reasons, it should be possible to specify a range as property.
      Marcel suggested a port config value along the lines of port="random" or port="pick-from-range(8000,9000)".
