Cyrus was simply pointing out that while rfc 2445 gives a process for 
registering new properties, the BNF given in the rfc does *NOT* allow them. 
The grammar in rfc 2445 only allows the explicitly listed properties plus the 
x-properties, but nothing else. So any implementation that throws an error 
when it encounters a POLYGON can still be rfc-compliant.
