Fellas, just so we're clear...
Every custom prop I add to a user's work product is done by their
choice. Each preference that adds a custom property is documented in
the Preferences section of Constellation where you can chose whether
or not to use them. In the case of constellation they may amount to
25 to 30 bytes.

Custom props are certainly useful, but more so if the user knows
what's happening.
In the standalone builder I'm making it also uses a single custom
property, but before it's added it notifies the user and asks
permission, or lets the user save the metadata to a file. For all
subsequent runs once the property has been added it no longer asks.
Not all circumstances allow such flexibility, but at least letting
the use know is a step in the right direction (and of course
refraining from all use of custom props where any alternative will
work, such as colorizing on the fly rather than cashing a huge
htmlText version of the script).
