An alternative approach might be to create a custom property set to
hold these properties.
I dislike encoding metadata into a prefix or suffix in the name
(although it's a common practice). Creating a custom property set
"bundles" all these properties in one handy place,
It also makes it easy to enforce the "read-only" status with a
setProp handler, without interfering with other custom properties or
having to list all the read-only properties in a handler.
