       Body:
to me, the inheritance of the <reports> section isn't a problem.  if my child project 
inherits the dashboard report and attempts to run it, that's fine.  The report still 
needs to be configured by that child project to run correctly.  Since property 
inheritance isn't due in maven until post 1.0, how is the child project able to pick 
up the properties set by the parent project and essentially "rerun" the dashboard 
report across all other children projects?

if it helps at all, i use an "eclipse" project layout:
/myproject
 |_ subproject1
 |_ subproject2
 |_ mainproject 

in this structure, i must use properties as follows to get dashboard to run:
#multiproject settings.
maven.multiproject.basedir=${basedir}/../
maven.multiproject.includes=*/project.xml
maven.multiproject.excludes=mainproject/project.xml

#dashboard settings
maven.dashboard.basedir=${maven.multiproject.basedir}
maven.dashboard.includes=${maven.multiproject.includes}
maven.dashboard.excludes=${maven.multiproject.excludes}

so, the problem lays in how is the child project inheriting these parent project 
settings?

    Summary: subprojects inherit parent project properties

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.
