My apologies, I misread the proposed code. 
It is a bit confusing to have "jfx.release.suffix" and 
"jfx.experimental.release.suffix" where the former refers to an artifact 
property and the latter refers to a major feature/variant/... like metal. But 
then, consistent naming is always difficult so I'm ok with the proposed 
suggestion.
