Description
g8 supports declaring default property values as Maven Central lookups (with some filtering too).
See for example https://github.com/akka/akka-grpc-quickstart-java.g8/blob/ca45326ccca94b9acb3e3113b754d5ad81e48cc8/src/main/g8/default.properties#L3

Research direction
Start with g8's Maven Central lookup documentation and the linked akka-grpc-quickstart-java.g8 default.properties example. Locate the hardcoded version property in this template and compare its declaration with that example; done means the version is resolved through a Maven Central lookup with the required filtering.
