[Python-Dev] string-valued fget/fset/fdel for properties

[Greg Ewing]

I just thought of another small benefit - the property
definition can precede the definitions of the methods
which implement it, e.g.

  class C(object):

    c = property('get_foo')

    def get_foo(self):
        ...

which is a more natural order to write things in.
