Feature Goals

For information about the "Goals guiding the Goals" see: [PRINCIPLES].

While Windows is the primary platform, some goals may represent cross-platform utility as well. Since a portable jpackage really only needs slightly different arguments on different platforms, cross-platform support is often low-cost.
