Absolutely.

I hear you.  So pulling this in another direction, is there mileage in
adding other integration specific properties files?  My instinct is 'no',
LDAP is really only of interest (to me) because the same connection is
(potentially) used at two integration points AuthN and Attributes.

Some sort of

Idp.ldap.properties="whatever"

Or better 

Idp.inetgration.properties="whatever"

?

But in fact my concern is more fundamental, whether spring easily allows for
the configuration of two properties files for property replacement (we will
need both)?
