I would think that getting the current values is essentially the answer 
to what keys are supported? If you use a `mv` with a nullable you can 
export all the known keys and their values.

I'm okay with the idea of exporting properties for all the things. I'm 
also okay with them being read/write. I just think they should apply 
immediately if using that API.

And if you want to set all of them "atomically", use either an extended 
SetUIInfo variant (either more parameters or a vardict).

Anyway, just my 2 cents.
