It is a sad state the implicit public properties use *var* and implicit public methods nothing, this makes the introduction of new visibility modifiers terribly complicated. You are completely right, they should be the same and *var* should be banned. It is consistent and that is very important. I cannot and do not want to argue against this. Yet at the same time the lack of access (and additional visibility) modifiers is what I am missing the most. Seems as if this has to wait for 8.0 (or 9.0, depending on the resistance). :( -- Richard "Fleshgrinder" Fussenegger
