That's tough. It's a wide open namespace, and predicting the future is
impossible.
If you can use ES6 features, consider not putting the property on the
object, but instead using a WeakMap, and keeping your own stuff separate:
var wm = new WeakMap();
wm.set(socket, { yourproperty: value });
wm.get(socket).yourproperty
If not, namespace hard. Perhaps socket.yourmodulename.yourproperty?
socket['yourmodulename:yourproperty']?
