Indeed.

Also people may want to want something else than Subversion like GIT or 
Mercurial for source control, and both do not have properties but rather 
files like .gitignore and .hgignore with similar syntaxes, like CVS does 
with .cvsignore.

Maybe we might add a (documented) semi-automatic way of doing it, that 
would give you a list of what files to ignore, than you could manually 
copy & paste into you .*ignore files.
Although with only few files to ignore it might not be worth it, and one 
would have to split the list output per directory as most of these file 
formats are for one directory at a time only.

Anyway it's better to have a documentation about all these ignores 
somewhere first!
