You are using 0.9 right?
If so there is a new properties system, unfortunately it is not well
documented but you can see notes in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-588
In particular the sub issue
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-734 links to the thread
http://marc.info/?l=forrest-dev&m=114170683324461&w=2 which tells you
how to do this in a scalable way.
As ever, pulling that out into a patch for our documentation would be
really helpful (don't worry about perfect, anything that is not hidded
in the issue tracker is an improvement).
