It is my understanding that most of this code pre-dates properties and
going through and updating all of the classes is a _huge_ amount of work.
It is more a matter of time than will.
There is also a slowly simmering discussion about implementing artists in a
managed property/attribute frame work (either traitlets, param, or rolling
our own) which is related to this.
