Do we want functions to act as properties, or merely omit parens for ufcs/chaining?

except that someone would write the getter, then write the tests 
for the getter.

several years latter, another programmer writes the setter, and 
then the tests for the setter.

both the tests for the setter and for the getter work (and, 
through some hasard, even read/write tests would work, if anybody 
care to write).

then you put that class into production code and the plane 
crashes.
