Maybe I'm confused but I thought this discussion was now about the
propertynames not the properties?  Sorry if I didn't make that clear.

To clarify, I don't care about synonyms coming back from the properties but
I do think there should be a way to, optionally, return synonyms as part of
the propertynames.

I think the two are getting confused right now because if you want a list
of the property names of an object, you have to use the keys of the
properties of that object.  Hopefully, the movement to get improvements to
the propertynames functionality will remove that requirement.
