Yes. I remember someone else asking a similar question, but the
getProperty does not take the tag name as a parameter (which I thought
is obvious given that tagnames are qnames, whereas property names are
strings) Property names and tag names are different, although they are
often related because the former is often computed from the latter.
If you'd like to get a property that will hold a particular tag name,
you need to loop through properties and find it. We talked about this,
right? I suggested maybe we can have such a convenience method on the
reflection library.
I'll expand the javadoc of PropertyInfo.getName() to state that it's not
meant to be tag names or anything like that.

I also clarified javadoc. You should get the type names from
NonElement.getTypeName().
