 plugin parameters and anything else.

 We once had a document that Vincent and I agreed upon and I was about to
 implement it and then I disappeared for 8 months so it never came to pass.

 So I guess it's important to figure out what people are using properties
 files for and see if we can't incorporate it all into the POM. Or if we do
 have properties file (something I would like to avoid) say they don't

          <type>java.lang.String[]</type>
          <required>false</required>
          <editable>true</editable>
        </parameter>
      </parameters>

- we need to know what came from the POM, and validate those
- plugin in any default values
- check to see if anything is missing
