>          Issue Type: Bug
>         Environment: 1.3RC2
>            Reporter: Gabriele Garuglieri
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 1.3

>         Attachments: list.patch
>
>
> When the property object is a List or an Array, 
> BaseConfiguration.getProperty() returns a reference to the object contained 
> in the store.
> This means that changing that object, changes the content of the properties 
> store without an explicit setProperty() or addProperty(). 
> Also any change to the object in the store will change the object that the 
> code has reference to, but the user is not aware that the property has 
> changed unless he has added a ConfigurationListener.
> Attached a patch to make the object returned by 
> BaseConfiguration.getProperty() a clone of store content, to avoid side 
> effects when changing Collection properties.
