I'm also interested in 'how' properties and methods will be exposed -
particularly as we have already done these extensions within Visage,
which likewise supports a (modified) object model for references to
files/fields/values/smvs/... etc by name (rather than <x,y,z> notation
.... my understanding is that Cache also "really" supports n-level
nesting, which fits in nicely XML and what we are doing inside of
Visage.

Anyway, will see what hits the street for real. It's easy to come up
with 'ideas' (anyone remember dsRabbit ?) - but until I can touch it ...
