I would think that we *should* deviate.  I would assume that this would
be very useful, even if it doesn't follow the standard JavaBeans
definition.  In the end, it is all about easier access to an object.  I
think List access as an index adds value.  But the question is, what do
you so if you want to set() an indexed List property?
