Body:
yes, this could be just a documentation issue, but i still don't understand it. I
have the dashboard report, and properties, defined in the parent project. The
dashboard <report> is inherited by all of the children projects, but the properties
are not. Having the dashboard report generated in the child projects should be a
non-issue because the properties are not set in the child project and should just
generate an empty report. A simple use case of this is to run "maven site" from the
child project, and it works correctly. But, when i run "maven multiproject:site" from
the parent project, the properties from the parent are inherited by the child and thus
the dashboard is rerun.
the REAL issue that needs explanation is how the dashboard plugin is inheriting these
properties from the parent to the child project. other plugins/reports to not have
this inheritence (ex: checkstyle plugin properties must be defined in all child
projects since parent properties are not inherited).

Key: MPDASHBOARD-5
Summary: subprojects inherit parent project properties
Type: Bug

Description:
running the dashboard report from a mulitproject setup (ie: maven multiproject:site)
the dashboard plugin in child projects inherit the properties of the parent project.
this causes the dashboard report to be rerun from all child projects instead of just
from the parent project.
my setup is as follows:
parent project has the maven.dashboard properties set. project.xml defines the
dashboard report. executing maven multiproject:site causes all subprojects to inherit
parent properties, so each child project has a full dashboard report. this increases
the build time exponentially. the child projects should not inherit the properties,
and when the dashboard report is run in the child project, it should return an empty
report.
