I think that is an excellent idea actually... Have two getters and 
settesr for PropertyNames property in Query: one with string[] and one 
with PropertyName[]. The inner representation of the property names in 
the class could be PropertyName[], but when the string[] getter and 
setter are used, conversion is done automatically.

I think that would be even better than having a setNamespaceContext() in 
Query!
