I think inability to access child's private properties from parent's
scope is pretty much OO. This is actually how private properties work,
they cannot be accessed out of the class scope.

Description:
------------
The property_exists function returns true on private properties if
called within a class. That doesn't work, if it is called in a function
of a parent class. If you overload the function in the childclass it
works, but this is actually not the idea behind OOP ;-)
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
class x {
private $x;
public function prop ($p) {
return property_exists($this,$p);
}
}
class y extends x {
private $y;
}
$x = new x;
echo 'prop(x): '.$x->prop('x').'<br>';
$y = new y;
echo 'prop(y): '.$y->prop('y').'<br>';
?>
Expected result:
----------------
you should see
prop(x): 1
prop(y): 1
Actual result:
--------------
prop(x): 1
prop(y):
