I'm not sure about the name "propset" ... Maybe something like "setproperty" would be better.
I think not. Saying "setproperty" has too many ambiguous mental parsings. When does "set" take place -- assigning a value to a property is different defining the property itself. Is "set" a verb so that we're talking about a property of sets/frozensets. Is "set" a completed action so that the property has been set. Let's stick with "propset" which has precedent as an svn action and serves as a short, simple mnemonic to the functionality. Also, I find that these unique words are easier to search for. I once co-owned a magazine called Know Your Boston and it was very difficult for clients to find using Google. Raymond
