3) properties decay to normal functions when they have their

Is there some reason why we _need_ to be able to take the
address of properties? I've yet to see a good argument in
favour of it, and I've seen several against. I think that
whole idea is a misfeature that won't be missed.

Are there any arguments against it within the context of the
proposal i'm making? At the very least the obvious problems
disappear.
If the consensus was that the address of a property was an
unnecessary concept then it could be disallowed and point 3) of
my list disregarded. The rest stands separate from this issue.
