Nope, @Property is completely for your convienience, typically so you can reference a value (or injected service, component or whatnot) directly from a template using a property expression.
In all cases where Tapestry needs to access the field, such as to synchronize its value with the session, it bypasses getters and setters (either yours, or those generated by @Property) and updates the field directly.
