It would be nice if the IOSS library property manager would look at all properties that are defined via the IOSS_PROPERTIES environment variable and 1) make sure it knows about them, and 2) make sure their value was accessed during the run.
This could also be done with the properties passed internally to the Ioss::DatabaseIO objects...
This would be similar to how CMake outputs a list of defines at the end of the configure process listing what defines were set by the user, but were not used in the configure.
