    Maybe an approach along the lines of what we do with front-sticky would make
    sense, this way every particular use of a property can be separately marked
    as needing to be kept or not.

I would not object to it, but I don't think this complexity is needed.
I think that any given property will always want the same treatment
here.

If we find a case where that is not so, we could still add this extra
complexity then.
