Just committed some improvements:
* installer build is now based on distribution package so no need to
duplicate any modification done to the distribution package anymore
* all configurable properties in generated configuration files are now
real maven properties that can be overridden anywhere without
reconfiguring the resource plugin like it used to be done everywhere
* it's also possible to easily append new plugin to list of XE plugin
instead of having to duplicate them everywhere you need to add new
plugins. Same thing for XEM.
