Description

Currently the org.apache.geronimo.webservices.SystemPropertyGBean is completely undocumented. It could be a handy configuration tool for various purposes. A short explanation how it works, what is its declaration scope (JVM, module, realm, etc), a couple examples and maybe even some words of warning would be useful for many.
Where to insert those SystemPropertyuGBean configurations? Is it possible to compromise the system with carelessly set properties? Where to get info on which properties can be changed runtime and which may require server restart?

What is the right place for this documentation?

It's very simple GBean actually. There are just the propertyName and propertyValue.
