Not too much good. Among the simpler solutions there's the 'property' attribute, that while not helping in reducing code (it makes code longer!) solves most problems, while being simple. It's the minimal solution that I think will work/fly.

There are also other alternative (and a little more complex) solutions (inspired by C# too), that allow to reduce boilerplate code. I have asked for one of them more than one year ago. They aren't hard to learn.
