Is the -property compiler flag broken/bad idea?

[Gary Willoughby]

I've been using the -property compiler flag when i compile 
programs and thought it was pretty cool but i've recently had a 
conversation with someone who has informed me it's broken and a 
bad idea.

Can someone point me to the discussion on this or quickly fill me 
in as to why this is the case. I have no opinion on the subject 
as i'm ignorant of this topic.

Thanks.
