I'll go +1 too :-) I reckon it should be possible to switch off via a
torque.props property, like addSaveMethod, but with the default being on.

Well, I didn't really meant to usurp you - just suddenly realised both how
it would be useful to me in my current project and how I would do it... so
I went ahead. Great idea - thanks.
There's a patch below that I believe should do it, if everyone's happy with
it I'll check it in. (I decided on getByName not getFieldByName because I
think 'getXXX' already implies field retrieval). I've also gone for the
same property naming convention as velocity (i.e. init caps).
Note I've also handled every primitive type even though at present
TorqueStringUtils.getJavaName will only return 'int'. The range of types
supported should be bigger though IMO, and this code should never break
whatever types Torque comes to handle.
