So isn't your request rather to hide the properties drawer better by
default?  You were _only_ talking about the UX in this whole thread and
that might be a lot easier to adapt while not changing the way Org
syntax is defined.

There were lots of bugs to be fixed with properties and properties
inheritance and I dabbled in that endeavour, which makes me more
cautious about wading in and changing it yet again.  Knowing where to
find the properties quickly is key to this not falling apart again,
IMHO.  Even then, due to inheritance properties are probably the most
complex thing to wrap your head around in Org aside from Babel.

As I said above, the solution may well be different than both what you
want to keep and what Org offers now.  I don't find that thread
particularly annoying, btw.
