   I feel like maintaining this list is going to be very challenging, how would 
anyone know to update this?
   
   The most correct solution to me would be for us to use a Cookie for the 
interacts between NiFi UI and the REST API, this way the credentials are 
submitted on all requests, similar to how a client certificate is automatically 
submitted. We would still want to support the current Authorization header 
approach for direct API access.
   
   If we have a good reason for not doing that, and we still want to pursue 
some type of allow list, could it be done with some kind of patterns? Not sure 
if all the front-end stuff comes from some base path that we could just allow 
anything that starts with the base path, or maybe use extensions and say that 
we allow any .html, .css, .js, etc.
