Very cool. It will give us a good place to put common system
properties like keystores and keystore passowords, not to mention the
billion properties CORBA needs.

Ok, throwing out another idea. We've got a number of things that
can be configured via system properties. What do people think
about having a file called system.properties we put in the conf/
directory where people can put any properties they want and we will
read them in and add them to System.getProperties().
This would be in addition to the ability people already have to
properties added to the system properties via -D args. E.g.
./bin/openejb start -Dfoo=bar
We'd probably want the -D args to be applied after we read in the
system.properties file so anything on the command line would win.
We have a ton of things we can do with system properties already.
I started to write them into this email but moved it into a new
confluence page as it was too big :)

See this related jira (OPENEJB-451)
Not to mention people may want to add their own properties for
their apps. See a related idea (OPENEJB-457)
So what do people think? Thumbs up? Thumbs down? <Insert your
thoughts here>
