Personally, I hope the answer is that this will remain supported. The only 
disadvantage is the runtime type introspection, which should/could be solved 
via Ulf's idea of something like an inline interface/trait component. Such 
that eventually we can do something like:

```
interface ModelData { // syntax is open, just to give an idea
    required property string text
    required property int answer
}
delegate: Text {
    required property ModelData model // model is a misnomer, but I digress
    text: model.text + model.answer
}
```

Cheers
