New submission from Mark Diekhans <markd at kermodei.com>:
done a setattr on a property gives a very unhelpful error message
AttributeError: can't set attribute
it neither indicates the name of the attribute that failed or the cause.
an error such as "can't set property attribute: the_attr_name"
would be far more helpful.
