UI is handling the site.xml generation

Anything more specific....? This works fine for me.

In my case, I needed to add an associateSitesURL property to the site.xml, and it gets overwritten each time I run a build. 

For the moment I can get around it by re-adding the property and regenerating the p2 repos from the headless metadata generator after each build - but there is no way to add these properties from the UI.
