ExtendedProperties should not just allow NPEs 

           Summary: ExtendedProperties should not just allow NPEs
           Product: Commons
           Version: 3.1
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Minor

Its really an annoyance because I frequently have my debugger stop on
NullPointerException.

ExtendedProperties.readProperty

Change from         
                    String line = readLine().trim();
to
                    String line = readLine();
                    if(line != null) line = line.trim(); else return null;

Also in ExtendedProperties.load

            while (true) {
                String line = reader.readProperty();
				if(line == null)
					return;
                int equalSign = line.indexOf('=');
