Although I'd prefer some kind of special method for (at least) accessing them, maybe even a special method/mode because I'm still unsure myself whether this could have dangerous (security related) repercussions. Then there'd be no more guessing or workarounds to check whether some property has certain attributes set or unset. You could just query them directly and verify their contents. It would make building a test suite of any kind much easier... - peter
