Adding to what @kevinrushforth said, this is used everywhere. All layout constraints are implemented by using `Properties`. Changing anything there can break the layout.

If we just talking about the properties calling a method in the skin, I dislike the current way as well, but have no other idea really. Maybe a good topic for the mailing list then.
