Expressions not evaluated inside <parent>

Description

The version tag within the parrent block does not evaluate properties.
If I put a Version String directly in there, it works.
A correctly defined property doesn't.

I was building Selenium, and found that I could propagate automatically the version number as follows:
<parent>
<groupId>org.openqa.selenium</groupId>
<version>${SeleniumVersion}</version>
<artifactId>selenium-rc</artifactId>
</parent>

This worked on Maven 2.0.4, but doesn't with 2.0.6.
Alas, I was forced to upgrade due to maven-assembly-plugin, version 2.2-beta-2-SNAPSHOT, which forces the use of 2.0.6.

This is a duplicate of the linked issue and a contentious one at that. Anything done here should be in the context of the other issue in 2.1 ( if at all)
