[Mondrian] Placing Member Properties of a level on same row as the member

[Paul Stoellberger]

CELL PROPERTIES aren't DIMENSION PROPERTIES

its two different kind of mdx

CELL PROPERTIES affect any additional properties for cells (usually formatting options such as "FONT_COLOR" , …)
In jpivot, analyzer saiku we fake those by using a specific FORMAT_STRING 

DIMENSION PROPERTIES include level properties etc.

Some MDX clients I’ve looked at make the properties available as a right click option on the dimension members in the crosstab.
