Walter and I have had a discussion on how to finalize properties.

I agree with everything in this. This looks exactly like what I
wanted a few days ago. Thank you!
One aspect not addressed is free-function properties:
I thought of one other problem with this proposal. You can no longer
get a delegate of a property. Like it or not, there will be existing
code that does get a delegate to properties (it is allowed now).
I think we should provide a __traits accessor for this. Otherwise,
there is no way to port said code to the new style.

T delegate() f = &a.prop -> auto f = ()=>a.prop;
T delegate(T) f = &a.prop -> auto f = (T x)=>a.prop=x;
