Hi Jonathan,
interesting : this snippet compiles.

interface IBindingList {
		
	@property bool AllowEdit();


class A : IBindingList {
	private bool _allowEdit;

	@property {
		bool AllowEdit() { return _allowEdit;	}
		bool AllowEdit(bool enable) { return _allowEdit = enable; }
	}	
}

But this one NOT.

interface IBindingList {
		
	@property bool AllowEdit();
	@property bool AllowEdit(bool enable);
}
class A : IBindingList {
	private bool _allowEdit;

	@property {
		bool AllowEdit() { return _allowEdit;	}
	}	
}
IMO this is bad design.
