Note that an alternative is to split your property file into several,
one per "prefix". Then you only have to <property
file="${env}.properties" /> and simply refer to the prefix-less
properties 'baseurl'. Put common (or default) properties into another
file yet, and load both in order, keeping in mind that the first
property defined "wins".
There's also <propertyset> which can work with prefixes and remove
them, but I don't think it applies here. --DD
