Help/command/get_cmake_property:

    get_cmake_property
    ------------------

    Get a property of the CMake instance.

    ::

      get_cmake_property(VAR property)

      Get a property from the CMake instance.  The value of the property is
      stored in the variable VAR.  If the property is not found, VAR will be
      set to "NOTFOUND".  Some supported properties include: VARIABLES,
      CACHE_VARIABLES, COMMANDS, MACROS, and COMPONENTS.

      See also the more general get_property() command.

`get_property` has no way (that I see) to ask for the same properties.
The whole command docs could use a revamp too (while TARGETS is being
implemented to avoid conflicts?).
