Guillaume Nodet commented on MNG-7635:
--------------------------------------
We'd have to be extra-cautious about letting user properties override stuff in
dependencies. This should generally *not* happen.
One valid exception would be for OS-platform activated profiles (a la
{{javafx}}) maybe. I'm not even sure we should support {{system}} scope. The
only real valid use case was for the JDK, but is long gone afaik.
> Investigate how to safely propagate user properties to dependencies (see
> MNG-5982 and MNG-7417)
