[jboss-as7-dev] System properties propagated from command line using -D, -P or --properties aren't visible in CLI and console

Is there some operation which allows me to fetch the system property 
value of a specific system property (instead of listing all the system 
properties)? For example, if I want to get the value of the 
jboss.node.name system property?

P.S: Should all system properties be allowed to be fetched in this 
manner or should there be restrictions on which properties are allowed 
and which are not?

It would be useful for administrators when searching for possible problems, the same applies to devels. For domain I'd like to see sysprops on each instance and separate overview for DC.
