They would be handy properties. But in the meantime try this behavior:
getProp xLoc
return item 1 of the loc of me

getProp yLoc
return item 2 of the loc of me
end yLoc
After assigning the behavior to any object you can just use:
put the xloc of someObject
put the yloc of someObject
...as long as you are always 100% certain that nothing in your code nor
any third-party library you're using locks messages when you need to
access those virtual properties.
When you have the luxury of such assurance, virtual properties are a
wonderful code style.
But I rarely have that luxury, so I rarely use getProp/setProp.
