The present system has two real weaknesses; one is the need to do 
string comparisons when comparing properties, and the other is the 
fact that we have to clone the string values when making copies, 
passing properties through functions, etc. If the properties were stored 
internally in a numerical format both of these would go away. I think 
Hub's proposal should be considered.
