Thanks ;-)


We have recently translated all the properties to the new property 
system and during this process the trunk was a bit unstable. We are now 
working hard to stabelize everything again. Most of the ussues you've 
encountered are due to this transition.

The foce methods were generated by the old properties to set the 
property value without calling modifier and without dispatching a change 
event. This feature has not been implemented in the new properties. Also 
fixed in svn.

The property definition has been fixed but validation of forms is still 
very basic.
