Description

The code currently checks both local Properties and SystemProperties in several places.

This is unnecessary, as the Properties class already supports the notion of property defaults, as these can be passed in to the constructor.

I think it would be better to drop the specific check of the SystemProperties.

This would be more flexible, as the user could decide whether or not to allow the use of SystemProperties or some other set of defaults.
