Why can't there be more thought placed in features that add value or add to the langauge as opposed to features that might make things VERY slightly convienent.
My IDE can generate getters/setters, it can also refactor getters/setters, it handles auto completion of getters/setters and finds where in code the getter/setter is used.

Note much, hence my vote for not important!
