Description

In a context hierarchy there's no sense in all contexts loading the same properties (and the parent will always have the remote values since it has to be initialized before a child is added).

Research direction

Start by tracing how context hierarchies load remote properties and how application names or profiles are compared between parent and child contexts. The change is done when child contexts avoid reloading identical remote properties while still loading them when the application name or profiles change; no files or tests are named in the issue.
