/**
 * Manages properties so any property modifications are handled here.
 * 
 * It lets us track the properties used and possibly remove some. They are all
 * scattered in many places and it's so hard to keep track of them.
 * 
 * The class holds all OpenEJB properties and optionally can amend the
 * environment.
 * 
 * The aim of this class is to establish one place to keep the properties and
 * eventually remove the need to set System properties to communicate between
 * parts and possibly yet lay out a foundation for setting them up in JNDI or
 * some other means
 * 
 * TODO: Should this class be concerned with concurrency issues?
