Given that it seems that only MDLWriter has an extra method to indicate
that extra property information should be written, I figured that it
would make sense to have a 'special' property called SD_TAGS

I admit, my proposal is partly due to laziness :)

Invariably I will know the names of my SD tags, so I can always create a
temporary HashMap and extract the relevant properties via getProperty()
and populate the HashMap and then send it setSdFields().

It just seemed a little convoluted.
