There is already a syntax for xml based properties file defined in the jvm. So we don't have to parse anything, it's just about detecting that the file is in xml somehow and use loadXml instead of load on the Properties object iirc. I guess the easiest solution is to try text based and in case of failure, try with xml ...
I plan to apply a very big patch on fileinstall on monday, so we should wait a bit and do that on top of the work i've done. Could you please raise a JIRA issue for that ?
