OK, how about a compiler switch (that can be turned on or off) that SEARCHES

loop) where the exact Type is not known in advance, just the presence of a 
specific property or Event.  If the
switch can be turned Off again after the routine, the impact on performance 
shouldn't be a concern.  Greater
flexibility and ease of use, especially for newbies (RTTI is difficult and 
poorly documented) is needed if
freepascal/Lazarus is to become universally adopted.

You just need to understand what you are doing, and use

  SetObjectProp(Sender,'Datasource',MyDataSource);

that's all there is to it.
