Ability to separate property name with "_" for environment variables
Bash, Fish and probably many other Linux shells don't allow to use . (dot) in an environment variable name. Therefore it is not possible to separate plugin name and property name.
export OVERRIDE_pitest.targetClasses=foo
bash: export: `OVERRIDE_pitest.targetClasses=foo': not a valid identifier
_ (underscore) could be used as an replacement.
Underscore is also how Gradle specifies properties as environment variables: ORG_GRADLE_PROJECT__prop_=somevalue ( http://www.gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/tutorial_this_and_that.html)

@bmuschko I can add it to my open source project's contribution TODO list, but it is already very long and it would not have a high priority as I don't use mentioned feature. I just spotted it when I tested parameter quoting for #3.
We are doing some housecleaning and we consider this plugin "feature complete". Since this is an enhancement, we will accept PR's but won't be able to prioritize this enhancement. Otherwise we will close this issue.
