Yes, @method and @property are very handy. Out of curiosity, since you're
providing magic getters and setters, why not use __get and __set instead of
__call with matching on "get_xxx" and "set_xxx"? This would allow using the
simpler (and IMHO much more expressive and PHP-ish) forms

    $obj->foo = $obj->bar + 5;

Peace,
