Can you explain this ? As far as I know, there no member of the core team

I was obviously generalized a bit too much. If you really want me to,
I can search the mailing list archive to find out who said what.
Anyway, it was told many times before that inspecting a property with
Getter and Setter methods may change underlying data - so the whole
debugging of Properties are frowned upon.
Nono, "Frowned upon" doesn't mean it won't get implemented.
But it may be that GDB has serious implementation problems with it.
The inner workings of GDB are close to black magic from what I hear, so...
