I would ‘recommend' you listen(er) to the original properties if possible (as opposed to the aliases); to me that is a less ugly hack than the 10Hz timer approach.

Of course this is ‘less bad of two options’ choice.

I was/am hoping some other core devs will comment & remind me on the discussion around firing value-change on aliases, since we have talked about it before. The code change is quite easy, it’s the unforeseen consequences I worry about. I wonder if we could make it opt-in, i.e 

	alias
	alias-with-listeners

.. via an option flag to the alias() call. 

The change is basically to make alias() also add a proxy listener to its target.

Kind regards,
James
