Pete Muir commented on JBSEAM-2338:
-----------------------------------

I don't understand why we don't store the main seam-gen.properties in the created project, and then have a say list of 1-5 recent projects in the properties file in the seam-gen directory. User can then easily select from the list or enter a new path.

> Currently seam-gen only has the ability to manage one project at a time. This limitation is due to the fact that it sources build.properties from the seam-gen directory to read settings about the managed project. I propose that we make the name of the settings file dynamic so that it is possible for seam-gen to select it based on the name of a property supplied to the command line.
> Example:
> ./seam -Dbuild=projecta explode
> ./seam explode
> The first command would source build-projecta.properties. The second command would fall back to the existing behavior and source build.properties.
