I really don't like hacks like that. They will have to be maintained almost 
forever because tools will rely on them, just like the previously mentioned 
hack for shortstrings (they're also represented using a fake record).

While not a complete solution either, couldn't you use the information from the 
Lazarus codetools to figure out which properties exist? If that's currently not 
possible because you don't know which unit the type is declared in: DWARF 
supports adding information about where an entity is declared to the debug 
information. While FPC currently does not do that, this is something that could 
be added if it would help you.
