I have seen this happen as well, to random .properties files. Probably yet another bug caused by the weird DataObject setup in the properties module. When will this be rewritten? Can I do it? :-)
Yes, it seems to be caused by the weird setup, indeed. I do not know when it will be rewritten, I have no plan for it at the moment (I also maintain JUnit, Utilities, Image and I18N) I do not mind if you do it yourself. Just expect a lot of work and bear in mind that module Internationalization depends on Properties so there is a friend API between these two modules.
