The name "state" is also very generic, so that's a candidate for not being 
used. We need descriptive names that convey meaning and aren't ambiguous. That 
one doesn't fit the bill. For example, QAbstractSocket has a state() property 
that returns an enum of type SocketStatus. To be honest, socketState() might 
have made more sense, as QSslSocket later overloads that with the "encryption 
state".

Whether the other ones like "title" make sense without the "window" prefix, you 
need to decide. Is it unambiguous what that title is referring to? How about 
the modality? Do people usually refer to it as the "window modality"? Food for 
thought.
