I know we have users that write templates that rely on negative lookup  
of properties. Making testing for absence of a property expensive (by  
forcing reflective reinspection of the class) is something I'd not be  
comfortable with... Making it easy to wire selective cache purging to  
an event publishing mechanism in your API would be a better idea.

Or we could make the reinspection on failed property lookup a  
configurable property on BeansWrapper - users can turn it on if they  
use hotswapping and keep it turned off otherwise.
