While technically comments could be represented as key/value pairs I
would vote to keep documentation separated from that.

In past EOF projects I did some tricks in the webapp using the userInfo
on attributes and relationships that would require the key/value pairs
ot resist in memory.

Picking up your idea of lazily loading properties upon first access,
representing documentation as key/value pairs would bring the doc
strings into memory which is most definitely not what you want ...
