The reason we don't do it ourself is that a lot of that stuff calls into erxfileutils and that uses path names. Fixing it would be a lot of work and make code more complicated without a lot of real gain (at least from when I last looked at it).
So unless any of the committers actually need to use this themselves, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it.

WARN er.extensions.foundation.ERXFileUtilities - Can't get path when run as jar: ERNeutralLook - Properties
Actually, having only Properties come from and set by my program--is a feature--not a bug! This "feature" has not caused me any pain--yet.
I generally would look at the properties included in the framework, but would set the ones I want in my program's properties file. I am not sure what all I am missing by having to work this way.
NSBundle jars have additional features that regular frameworks do not! (Sometimes.)
