I have an object, that contains a status-property. The status gets set
by a function internal to that object. This function gets invoked as
/init();/ and sets the status-property of the outer function.

If I make that property world-readable via /this/ it will become
world-writable, too. Is there any way except of defining a getter
function to an inner property? I would like to get the property via
/Object.property/ still.
