Would not have made them properties either. It is somewhat 
similar to cache and const vs logical const issue. But you are 
right, this is were personal preferences start varying a lot, I 
don't realistically hope someone will give me language that 
restrictive in its core for my needs :) Just expressing personal 
attitude because I am in the hospital, bored and have a crazy 
amount of free time to chat on newsgroup :)

That may sound weird but I do like when core language features 
are very restrictive and require programmer to express his 
intentions verbosely. And provide _possibility_ to do cool stuff 
via advanced clearly separated advanced features. Like @safe vs 
@system but for syntactic language features. Not gonna convince 
anyone but at least pushing it my way makes me feel good :)
