I agree too.
Also note that property IDs are language-neutral, unlike english names of
templates, magic words, etc.
As I said: if there is broad conseus to only use P-numbers to refer to
properties, fine with me (note however that Lydia disagrees, and it's her
decision). I like the idea of having the option of accessing properties via
localized names, but if there is no demand for this possibility, and it's a pain
to implement, I won't complain about dropping support for that.
But *if* we allow access to properties via localized unique labels (as we
currently do), then we really *should* allow the same via unique aliases, so
property labels can be chanegd without breaking stuff.
Providing this possibility IMHO is a good thing. If it is possible to
allow this kind of access to data without generating the End of the
Universe, I'm all for it. Then it *will* be difficult to deal with all
the problems, but I don't think this is a good reason NOT to try to
implement it.
