> Configuration class has several methods to add a configuration resource. The
> properties of this resource can override properties of previously added
> resources, unless they were marked final. According to the Javadoc for
> Configuration.java, the check for final properties is done
> only while loading resources. But it makes sense to do this check in the set
> API as well. Otherwise, users will be able to override final properties set
> by admin.
