So we should call it something like:

<naming-properties>
<property>
<name>base-name</name>
<value>geronimo.maven:J2EEServer=geronimo</value>

</naming-properties>

Cause IMHO, having a <configuration> element with a <properties>
sub element implies something all together different:
[...]
Also I would prefer to not imply that these properties are limited
to only "naming-properties". I gut tells me that this will be a
useful extension place in the geronimo configurations.
Ok. I was under the impression via DJ's comments that these were
only for naming.

Dain:
I'm not sure about the names of name-keys and name-key. These
are really intended for use by the naming system and are rarely
used, so I prefer to name them that way rather than "properties".
What could other properties be used for? How would we distinguish
them from the ones for the naming system?
And your comment on using any naming system made me think my
impression was definitely write. I guess this isn't one of those
agreed upon things just yet.
So what is the general idea behind them? A generic bucket for
properties that are easily available to all gbeans in my
configuration?
I originally thought of them as having only to do with the naming
system, but after Dain suggested "properties" I realized that we
might think of something else to use them for in the future. They
would be available to parts of the deployment infrastructure such as
the naming system, but not really to any gbeans.
