Introduce ${artifact.properties} counterpart for ${project.properties}
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MASSEMBLY-487
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-487
             Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-5
            Reporter: Andreas Sewe


At the moment, interpolation in {{outputFileNameMapping}} allows access to the 
POM properties of the artifact in a {{dependencySet}} by means of 
{{${artifact.*}}}. Access to the (system) properties defined by the artifact's 
POM, however, is impossible; there is no {{${artifact.properties}}} counterpart 
for {{${project.properties}}}, even though it would solve some real-world 
problems for which no easy workaround is possible: 
http://www.mail-archive.com/us...@maven.apache.org/msg109792.html.

That being said, this inconsistency is at the very least confusing, in 
particular as the documentation's distinction between POM properties and 
(system) properties is quite subtle.
