The RFC doesn't change the current meaning of "undefined" (or "defined", or
"declared"...), just proposes to throw an Error (while it currently
triggers an E_WARNING).
First sentence of the introduction: "Undefined properties are those that
have not yet been defined either by the presence of a property declaration,
or by adding them to the properties hashmap through direct assignment, or
by having them assigned by an internal function such as json_decode."
`$obj->prop` alone doesn't define the property "prop", but `$obj->prop =
whatever` does.
