Ralph Goers commented on CONFIGURATION-353:
-------------------------------------------
I thought of that initially. It doesn't work because it doesn't happen soon enough. For example, notice that the entity resolver references a system property. Putting the attribution on the configuration element insures that system properties get set before anything else happens.

> SystemConfiguration allows the system properties to be accessed as a configuration and used in a combined configuration. However, no mechanism is available to set system properties from an external file. Such a facility would alleviate having to place a bunch of -D options on the command line.
