+ Combine the common decorators in a single function.
+
+ Use zero or one (but not both) of default or generator, since a
+ working default will keep the generator from functioning. Use the
+ default if you know what you want the default value to be at
+ 'coding time'. Use the generator if you can write a function to
+ determine a valid default at run time.
+
+ allowed and check_fn have a similar relationship, although you can
+ use both of these if you want. allowed compares the proposed
+ value against a list determined at 'coding time' and check_fn
+ allows more flexible comparisons to take place at run time.
+
+ Set require_save to True if you want to save the default/generated
+ value for a property, to protect against future changes. E.g., we
+ currently expect all comments to be 'text/plain' but in the future

+ comments to be interpreted as 'text/html', we would require that
