Great!

Not really. I can live with write-only procedural properties. I don't
think it changes any of the other points.
When reading a write-only property, i.e., a procedural property with a
setter and no getter, one reads undefined, even in strict mode. Right?
So an absent getter is always equivalent to a getter of
"function(){return undefined;}"?
