Are you guys serious?

At first I discounted this suggestion - particularly given that it was put
forward by the person who implemented "deep" properties on the Ant taskdef.

I don't understand how this could come anywhere near the current semantics
- given that properties may come from the command line, be read from a
file, and passed into subprojects.
