However it would be nice to have a feature like

  property Foo[Index: Integer]: Integer  write SetFoo  read GetFoo;
property Foo[Index: Integer; Ask: Boolean]: Integer write SetFooAsk read GetFooAsk;

The must have different Method Names, because the Setters(write SetFoo) last argument is the Value, so it' can not have a optional Ask element: procedure WrongSetFoo(Index: Integer; Ask: Boolean= True; AValue: Integer); But with different Setter/Getters that would not be a problem. In fact they can have the same name, if they are overloaded.

Any idea if such a feature would have a chance?

It won't: http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=12737 (that feature request was about having getters/setters with the same name, but the core problem is having multiple properties with the same name).
