It would be nice to be able to pass properties from an aggregate pom to module poms during a build.
Example: A project with 2 modules with different parent poms from the aggregate and want to share a version of a common dependency. The dependency is not available from the parent perspective. Each module would have to have a full GAV for a dependency, but could share the version so they will match.
Proposed Solution: Any property given in the aggregate pom would be available (and overwrite matching child module properties) to the child modules during build process.
Another [example](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52379013/how-to-set-environment-variable-in-maven-aggregator-without-inheritance-to-be-re) with similar expectations.
