I do remember that one of the esoteric PROP_TYPEs was specifically about
adding a dynamic list of structs (and possibly a dynamic list of dynamic
list of structs, you see what I had in mind), of arbitrary type. 
Oh, no, it's SARRAY and DARRAY (which are quite in disarray today,
unfortunately).

Yeah, _LIST should be when real estate is not a concern (when you want all
possible choices to be visible at once); maybe a not very good design
choice.
