Adam, if this would be the first time i talk to Adrian, I agree you were right, however this discussion has a long history with other discussions, i tried your approach many times, but i cannot get Adrian to answer simple questions on the business level. Technically no problem, very good to have Adrian on the team.
An example: Provide a valid business reason why the system would not work with my change. (he says i 'break' it, it is however working fin here.) So to repeat again what i changed: The properties file can only be overridden in the case when the widget comments are switched off. So specific web applications can be switched on if required in the web.xml Before also true could be overridden which was painfully shown in the example component not showing comments. I see no valid business reason why we should have that. I also added documentation to support this, because that was also a week point of the original change.
