| * PropertyStore.getPropertyNames(key) must be used to retrieve all the children keys. |

| * implementation must take care of the fact that there might be callback for |
| * every child thats added/deleted. General way applications handle this is |
| * keep a local cache of keys and compare against the latest keys. |
