And if you can't modify the bean to resolve the ambiguity? :) It's an interesting idea, but I think it has too much potential for confusion + backwards-compatibility issues. Frankly, I'm not super keen on the page-name stripping, but I can tolerate that because they are tapestry pages behaving in tapestry ways. "Property" has a very specific definition in the java language and spec, and I think it's a bad idea for Tapestry to change that definition for the sake of a few characters.
