Description

When writing flowfile content with
flowFile = session.write(flowFile, out -> {...}
only a byte array can be used.
It would be an improvement if you could provide an InputStream too.

So one would not have to do the copying oneself and insert possible errors.

while ((length = in.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length)) != -1)

{ out.write(buffer, 0, length); }
