We would like that too, however datasources are a JBoss concept and
are read by JBoss, so the only variable replacement in the -ds.xml
files are done using JBoss variables.
There are several options to make this work:
1. launch JBoss by giving it too al system properties file to read,
so that they are taken into account in the datasource.
This is easy to do, but changes the way JBoss is launched which is
platform-dependent (as the executable scripts depend on the platform).
See http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=JBossRunParameters for
the -P option.
2. do the replacement at Nuxeo pre-deployment time and point JBoss to
a datasource directory with nuxeo-replaced variables instead.
This would be more transparent but is more code to write.
So for your own project you may want to use the first option until we
find the time to code a datasource preparsing.

it would be nice if datasource properties like
org.nuxeo.ecm.sql.jena.databaseType are placed in an other config
file (i.e. datasources.properties) so that these properties are
overriden more easily (without having to maintain in the overriding
file other general properties not related to datasources).
