   Under the cover, you can't really delete a property, at best you can replace the content of an entity with the same minus the property you want to remove.

   Are you looking forward hiding this form the user? This could give the wrong idea that this is a cheap operation.

   That's exactly what i'd like to document:

   del entity['prop_to_delete']
   entity.save()

   We should be clear that a save() is a save() -- no special "delete this single property" operation.
