IBInspectable properties are just a convenience for setting User-Defined
Runtime Attributes on the Identity inspector. Since the original purpose
of User-Defined Runtime Attributes is to set values that IB doesn't know
about, IB can't forget settings for which the IBInspectable property has
been removed.
Likewise, there is no such thing as a "valueless" User-Defined Runtime
Attribute. Conceptually, we could add one, since UDRAs are just a way to
say "call -setValue:forKey: after decoding", and nil values are
acceptable here (as opposed to, say, dictionaries).
If you're an old-school Mac developer, one of the tricks to getting
along with IBInspectable is forgetting everything you've ever known
about IB Plugins. :P

Radars are always welcome. :)
