That depends on whether the property is set directly (by set_property) or if it's set by sending a property setting event. I remember that I have contemplated over this problem, but I don't remember my conclusions clearly. It might be a good idea to make Timing_translator configurable, to either write properties directly or indirectly. It isn't really clean to let a part of the back-end generate events to the stream, but on the other hand you can sometimes view the translator as a part of the front-end (like when using partcombiner).
