Alexey has a point. Currently the set* methods are complete no-ops, so that 
needs to be considered here.

This is an example of what can happen if method A specifies what method B will 
do :-)
Admittedly these cases are tightly coupled.

About Alexey's example,
I can't figure out what I'm supposed to be learning from the images in the bug 
report.
Can someone attach somewhere a clear "with methods" vs "without methods" (ie 
before and after, side-by side screenshot) of what is considered to be the most 
problematic consequence of removing them ?
