But maybe this is unnecessarily complex -- wouldn't it be better to just
fail and fix your deployment definitions?
+- It's not clear that the current implementation of DEFPROPLIST can support
+ everything we might want to do with it. An alternative approach to try out
+ would be for a call to DEFPROPLIST to expand into a macro definition, where
+ the new macro expands into the properties to be combined with DEFPROPLIST,
+ surrounded by ESEQPROPS. Calls to this new macro can then just be added to
+ propspecs by users. So in effect we would have a macro which can be used in
+ place of a propapp.
