What does OF do when you 'setprop' a property that doesn't already exist?
Does OF create it?
What if it exists but the new prop requires more space than the old prop?
Does it make space more space for the new property?
Thanks,
Mark

Now that was easy :-)
Just out of interest, what in the wording of the OF spec didn't
make this clear to you? Would be great to improve it ;-)
