Emmanuel Bourg updated CONFIGURATION-314:
-----------------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 1.6

This is a good idea. To remain compatible with the Properties format the separator must be restricted to '=', ':', or a white space other than a line terminator.

> While PropertiesConfiguration is tolerant of several different key/value separator characters when reading a properties stream, it is hard-wired to use an "=" character when writing them out again.
> Can we please have a way to customise this?  Seems like a perfect use for the PropertiesConfigurationLayout.
> Sadly, because of the way that PropertiesWriter has been implemented, it's impossible to extend and override this behaviour without copying large chunks of code.
