Description

org.apache.velocity.runtime.RuntimeConstants contains ways to configure the VelocityEngine.

The Texen Task 1.0 currently only supports the following constants:

RuntimeConstants.FILE_RESOURCE_LOADER_PATH
VelocityEngine.RESOURCE_LOADER,
"classpath." + VelocityEngine.RESOURCE_LOADER + ".class"
"classpath." + VelocityEngine.RESOURCE_LOADER + ".cache"
"classpath." + VelocityEngine.RESOURCE_LOADER + ".modificationCheckInterval",
RuntimeConstants.RUNTIME_LOG

I'd like to be able to separate out my Velocimacros into individual files.
But to do that I think I need to set VM_LIBRARY which I can not do through texen.

Would it be possible to add a general purpose VelocityEngine option property to the TexenTask so that anything that needs to be configured can be?
