[Building Sakai] Overriding complex type in sakai.properties

[Matthew Jones]

There is already a sakai property "bottomnav" that displays the links on
the gateway page

bottomnav.count = 2
bottomnav.1 = <a href="https://localhost/portal/site/!gateway">Gateway</a>
bottomnav.2 = <a href="http://www.sakaiproject.org/"
target="_blank">The Sakai Project</a>


What you're doing does look similar, but yea, super complicated.
