"Accessing a property property calls the get method associated with  
the property (by default, property) and setting it calls the set  
method associated with the property (by default, setProperty:). In  
fact, as long as there is an appropriate getter and setter available,  
you can use the dot-syntax invoke those methods even if you haven’t  
declared a property (if you haven’t declared a property, the getter  
and setter must be named property and setProperty: respectively)."
