Well, why not -- could you be a bit more specific about the exact API you 
need? Would a simple setCustomProperty(const QString &) /

New comments are written in English, but there is still a lot of code

We are currently developing in the 0.3 branch, which will be merged back in 
the trunk when we estimate it is ready. Feel free to check out this branch 
to work on a patch of yours.
