or as alternative you can use

  set the customkeys["x"] of object to empty
or
  set the customkeys["x"] of object to NewArray

I guess one can delete the NAME of individual customPropertySet [x] from
objects custom property sets by doing the following...

  get custompropertySets of object --(watch "s" at the end)
  delete line 1 of it -- or whatever line you need to delete
  set custompropertySets of object to it

but I never fully tested this myself
