The point I'm really driving at is where the limits of [lang] lie. There is
no technical difficulty (other than its a bit boring) of adding get and set
methods for each system property in addition to the constants. The question
is whether it serves a big enough need.

Maybe there is a large need to change environment variables, but I just feel
a little unconvinced. Consider me -0 I guess.
