Properties are just a D-Bus interface with 3 methods (documented in "Standard
Interfaces" in <http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html>).

Some bindings, like ndesk-dbus, give you syntactic sugar for implementing
that interface; dbus-python currently doesn't, so you implement it like you'd
implement any other interface, with the @method decorator on Get, Set and
GetAll methods.
