There is nothing wrong with that. If people on the client wikis think this is
sufficient, and the {{#property}} parser function does not need to support
"named" access to properties, that would be fine with me. So far, I assumed that
it would be very annoying to be forced to rely on IDs when using {{#property}}.
But if that is fine with everybody, that's fine with me - supporting only P-ids
there is much simpler than allowing access via labels or aliases.
