The idea came up when I tried to find a solution for a master properties file. I'd like to share common properties among projects in a similar fashion to the inheritance mechanism of project.xml. While it is possible with maven to have global goals in the master project, it is not possible to have global properties as well. So, with a generic preGoal I could load a master properties file via ant's property task. I assume a lot more use cases can be found with a generic pre/postGoal than my initial idea.
