Some system properties can be set before the JVM is started (using `-Dxxx` options on the JVM command line), others can be set by the java code using `System.setProperty`. Both may need to be supported, and splitting completely user properties from system properties (i.e. not setting user properties as system properties) may open the need for properties to be set by maven early (i.e. same time as user properties atm). Correct. My point was to clarify for/with the user that he is not interacting with system properties actually. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
