Description

GenerateFlowFile is used a lot for debugging and, when debugging, seeing the content of flow files with the "formatted" viewer is frequent. This viewer is based on the value of mime.type attribute. Instead of expecting the user to add it as dynamic property, it should be added as a default property of the processor. This will make life easier.
