The only ones listed are the ones that can't be derived from the 
primaries. I.e., loc, height, width, etc can be determined from the 
rect. Mainstack can be determined from the long name. Specific colors 
and patterns can be derived from the colors and patterns properties. Not 
sure about text properties but there's probably something.
