Jason Dillon commented on GERONIMO-1710:
----------------------------------------

I think I see why this might be needed now...

Looks like the best way to handle this is to allow m2 to filter these files to 
pick up the configuration, and thus we need a plugin to set these specialized 
dynamic properties.

Note, I had originally thought that antrun would be best for this... BUT, I 
just ran into a problem running Clover which invalidates that theory, since it 
does a full recompile and sets up a separate clover/classes... we need to have 
the resources put there for clover to function correctly.

So, based on that it sounds like it would be better to use the m2 filtering 
mechanism to handle expansion rather than writing out the properties file by a 
custom plugin.  The custom plugin however needs to set the properties.
