		//		Get a named property on a Stateful object. The property may
		//		potentially be retrieved via a getter method in subclasses. In the base class
		// 		this just retrieves the object's property.
		// 		For example:
		//	|	stateful = new dojo.Stateful({foo: 3});

		//	|	stateful.foo // returns 3

		//		Sets named properties on a stateful object and notifies any watchers of
		// 		the property. A programmatic setter may be defined in subclasses.
		// 		For example:
		//	|	stateful = new dojo.Stateful();
		//	|	stateful.watch(function(name, oldValue, value){
		//	|		// this will be called on the set below
		//	|	}
		//	|	stateful.set(foo, 5);

		//	set() may also be called with a hash of name/value pairs, ex:
		//	|	myObj.set({
		//	|		foo: "Howdy",
		//	|		bar: 3
		//	|	})
		//	This is equivalent to calling set(foo, "Howdy") and set(bar, 3)
