Hi all,

I've written my first application using Lift and now I'm deploying it
into a production. I find it inconvenient that the run mode is
specified as a JVM system property.

First, sometimes JVM system properties are inaccessible, for example
when deploying to a hosted servlet container.

Second, it's impossible to run different lift applications with
different run modes in a single
servlet container.

Generally, I believe that a *Java web application shouldn't be
configured by JVM system properties*. I suggest that the run mode
should be configured by a servlet context initialization parameter,
called for example "lift.run.mode". Or, for maximum flexibility, both
alternatives should be provided.

    With best regards,
    Petr

PS: Lift is a really great framework for writing web applications!
Thanks for developing it.
