gtk2-perl / easily accessing objects properties

[Guillaume Cottenceau <gc mandrakesoft com>]

During an irc talk with Manish Singh, he suggested the following
idea (which appears nice to me).


For each object property, instead of either using the generic

        $obj->set(property_name, property_value)

which gives for example,

        $window->set('allow-shrink', 1)

or even manually implementing in our classes accessors to have:

        $window->set_allow_shrink(1)


we could change our perl objects so that hash access would be
generic wrappers to automatically call set_property with the
right property name and value, giving the following use:

        $obj->{sensitive} = 1


What do you think?
