In our case, we are using a couple of these placeholders in the idp.properties file to specify server-environment-specific values, such as entityID.  We are setting those values in the Jetty start.ini file on each server.  Those values obviously are not available to the installation script.

We probably could set up some kind of OPTS variable to use to set them via the shell.

I know it manipulates the property files on initial install, but I didn't think it did on upgrades.
