Currently we pretty print link properties on objects, but the only way to actually access them seems to be by getting a Link object instead, which you do by using indexing (obj['link']) instead of dot notation (obj.link).
That all seems pretty arcane and annoying for the user.
I think we should probably expose link properties via indexing (obj['@lprop']) and/or a get_linkprop method.
(We could also support getattr(obj, '@lprop'), but that's a little weirder)
