I updated the proposal:

#1)
It seems to me that after declaring the property with the property keyword, the property isn't so virtual anymore.

#2)

I think this is a good idea, but aren't double underline methods reserved for those called by PHP itself.  The example shows the user calling __have_prop().  Under what circumstances would php call __have_prop()?

#3)

I would rather see an exception based mechanism for this, but I'll concede that as unlikely, so i'll just suggest using the standard PHP boolean values.  The proposal implies TRUE & NULL would be the same, which seems inconsistent.
