buildProperties.doLast cannot be used after upgrade to Grails 6.2.3

Note: I know the project moved, but posting here since, it's where my affected version resides

Problem:
While doing a preliminary check of migration from Grails 5.1.7 to 6.2.3 (7 is still RC) the main problem with build is the lack of buildProperties at the phase where it was previously available.

We've used the method suggested in https://grails.apache.org/blog/2017-04-02.html to enrich the app information, but as of #224 it is not possible, since properties fall to the after evaluation phase.

I'm wondering if there's a better more formal way we could do such enrichment right now, better than just trying to mitigate by stuffing it in project.afterEvaluate?

Thanks!
