> Currently sigil.properties supports expansion of ${key} values in a number of key places such as -defaults location and translation of ${.} and ${..} to paths relative to the sigil.properties file.
> Proposal to make this behaviour universal for all values.
> As part of this fix we should also address consistency issues with path locations wrt ${.} and ${..}
> In most places:
> key: path/to/resource
> is considered a path relative to the jvm process that executes where as 
> key: ${.}/path/to/resource
> is considered a path relative to the sigil.properties file
> However this is not true for the -sourcedirs attribute which has explicit parsing to make 
> -sourcedirs: src
> imply the source dir relative to the sigil.properties file.
> Suggestion to make source dirs behaviour default and use ${.} syntax only for jvm process paths.
