unlock-snapshots doesn't cover versions defined in properties

[famod]

It's quite common to not set a literal version directly in a dependency but use a property instead:

<!-- ... -->
  <properties>
    <mylib.version>6.0.1-20250909.132614-1</mylib.version>
  </properties>
<!-- ... -->
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>someorg</groupId>
      <artifactId>mylib</artifactId>
      <version>${mylib.version}</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>

unlock-snapshots (and I suppose lock-snapshots) doesn't seem to support such a setup because the respective property stays untouched after executing the goal, whereas the goal works as advertised with very same pom.xml when it's not using a property.

That's correct, but this is the case for most if not all goals (mojos) which do not explicitly name properties: they do not process properties at all.
