Input of custom properties on web force page

Description

It would be nice to give a builder a set of custom properties, and then ask for them on the web force-build page. I'm sorry if some of this functionality is already somewhere, but I can't find it all.

Use case: I want to be able to input a minor revision number (major revision is inferrable from the svn branch), which gets used in a final create-zip-file step, and possibly as arguments to the compile command (so help-about can automatically keep itself up to date). To be used in our formal release builder.

I think this is very similar to #87, and one of the patches there might do this, but it #87 is closed, and this functionality is not there (at least, I can't find it)

It's not available yet. One of the problems with doing this is that properties are untyped, so the web interface doesn't know whether to make a property a string or an integer, for example. We can probably get away with assuming they're strings, though. Want to hack up a patch?
