       Body:
I believe the main issue is because you're giving your top level project 2 different 
roles:
1- one of share area for common settings
2- one of real top level project that produces aggregated results

Sharing the definition of the reports is for 1, whereas defining a dashboard report is 
for 2.

There are 2 easy options I can think of:

A/ do as is done in the dashboard plugin tests, i.e. have child projects define the 
list of reports they wish to have (and thus do not inherit them from top level)

B/ create another project whose goal is to perform 2 (let's call it master):

toplevel
  |_ project1
  |_ project2
  |_ master

Would that be ok? The other possible options that I can see (like creating some 
speical properties) does not look right. I believe what we have here is an 
architectural issue hence my recommendation for A or B which matches goals 1 and 2.

        Key: MPDASHBOARD-5
    Summary: subprojects inherit parent project properties
       Type: Bug

Environment: maven-1.0-rc2

Description:
running the dashboard report from a mulitproject setup (ie: maven multiproject:site) 
the dashboard plugin in child projects inherit the properties of the parent project.  
this causes the dashboard report to be rerun from all child projects instead of just 
from the parent project.

my setup is as follows:
parent project has the maven.dashboard properties set.  project.xml defines the 
dashboard report.  executing maven multiproject:site causes all subprojects to inherit 
parent properties, so each child project has a full dashboard report.  this increases 
the build time exponentially.  the child projects should not inherit the properties, 
and when the dashboard report is run in the child project, it should return an empty 
report.
