That is the right place, but would require the library to insist that
all properties that might be to have already been set before listmechs
is called (which is reasonable, but is different from current behaviour,
which just requires them to be set before the mechanism is used). That
might be feasible (it wouldn't break cyrus-imapd).  I'll bounce it off
the cmu folks.

This doesn't knock out all the getprops of these fields - just one of
