my changes were only mechanical adding of the property interface for
existing object properties. The two mentioned above could be probably
removed, because there never was a user interface.
Though if I recall correctly stereotype(ing) an object maybe useful for any
uml object (stereotype == name for "same as declared in detail elsewhere").
The "name" property maybe a left-over of adding the (formatable) text
property. IHMO "name" would be a more descriptive name than "text" for
these, but that's is just a matter of taste.
The whole property api should be re-thought, when converting to gobject
usage anyway ... And the text handling when converting to Pango usage.
Have Fun,
