Changing the existing values of properties is somewhat difficult because there is no global search & replace function in the standard wiki code and, even if there was, for the SMW we'd need to restrict the replace to one property (e.g. if we want to change 'Has domain::System testing' to 'Has domain::Testing' we don't want to replace 'System' where it occurs in other parts of the page).

Sean is working on a python script to accomplish this.
