Actually, I was thinking you'd have targets with the block of properties you need to set, conditionally running the target based on your determining property.
Using <condition>, you'd set a property to "if" on in the property-setting targets (eg., you'd set something like "setForVal1" if your determining property was equal to "val1", "setForVal2" if it was equal to "val2", etc., and have <target name="setVal1Props" if="setForVal1">). Using Matt's <switch>, you'd just set "target" to run the property-setting target you needed (eg., <case value="val1" target="setVal1Props"/>).
