IExtenderProvider

after reading Bob Powell's excellent article in WellFormed it occurred to me
that IExtenderProvider is probably how VS implements ToolTips as a property
(was a mystery!).

1. is it confusing to be placing Properties into the Designer view that
aren't "really" properties? perhaps a better way of saying this is, should
there be a conventional way of doing this (such as naming style, coloring
etc). what's the consensus on whether to take advantage of this feature,
how stylistically to use it, etc?

2. will all this be trashed in Whidbey, better to wait for the new
paradigm, or is there an "upgrade path"?

Thanks in advance!
