Yes. It's a private (or protected) method which determines whether the
property is stored in the .DFM file for not. Similar to the default keyword,
it is used for optimising out unnecessary property settings (A good
thing(TM) since it speeds up form and datamodule instantiation). In this
instance, I think it optimises out the case where the component Caption is
the same as your component Name.
