Rather than changing the descriptor protocol in general, I'd personally be more amenable to the idea of *property* catching AttributeError from the functions it calls and turning it into RuntimeError (after a suitable deprecation period). That way folks that really wanted the old behaviour could define their own descriptor that works the same way property does today, whereas if the descriptor protocol itself were to change, there's very little people could do to work around it if it wasn't what they wanted.
