The Property Tag, described in the xsd file is not referenced in the wizard, action or command tag, but there is a comment: <!-- Additional element types that can be nested in the three top-level elements: -->
As for this, no property can be set at the beginning of a script.

The <property> tag is currently only allowed as a nested element inside an <if> tag and, implicitly, inside an <ant> tag (see XSD declaration for the complex types If and Ant).
It it true, though, that Escripts currently has only very limited support for accessing properties. Also, the property model is not very clearly defined, right now (for example, regarding the relationship/interaction between Java system properties and Escripts' own properties). These issues will be addressed in due time in a future version of Escripts.
