I thought about having boolean flags like this but after talking to Tony
we agreed that it would just increase the amount of string parsing
during early initialization. Besides, why have two properties using an
integer bitfield and another huge number of boolean properties ?

this is what I'm still waiting for comments from Tony. I'm not convinced
we need this extra indentation level. It really brings nothing of value.
