> That was what I originally considered, but I quickly came to the opinion
that as soon as we did it that way, someone would want to use some such
property to match a Java version, etc., and that this would be a generally
applicable way to solve a broad cross section of similar use cases.
How could that be considered a bad thing ?
> default profile activation should consider available system and user

> Key: MNG-8081
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8081
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Profiles
> Affects Versions: 3.9.6, 4.0.0
> Reporter: Matthew Jason Benson
> Priority: Minor
>
> As discussed in my open PR, my use case is to compare between environment
> variables e.g.:
> {code:java}
> <activation>
> <property>
> <name>env.FOO</name>
> <value>${env.BAR}</value>
> </property>
> </activation>{code}
> Limiting the interpolation to user/system properties means that there is no
> mindf*ck resulting from profile activation order, etc., and keeps this
> request nonthreatening.
