Hmm... given you can have all sorts of chars in property keys it's probably not the best plan to use them as tags. Lots of other ways to skin that cat though. Attributes would be easy:
<property name="MacOS,short version">1.0</property>

It's also worth pointing out that lots of people use spaces in custom property keys. dgProps is a good example of that.
