    I see. I think the complexity in merging multiple properties file arises 
when you have the same configs declared in two properties files. What is the 
expected semantics there, do we merge the values somehow? If not, which one is 
overridden? Or do we throw an exception? The worst that could happen is that 
the user thinks that a particular value is used, but it turns out that it's 
actually being overridden silently because another properties file also defines 
it.
    
    That said, I think I understand your use case a little more. Could you file 
a JIRA and add it to the title? Maybe we can have more people look at this and 
decide whether we actually want to support this.
