I think not.  Saying "setproperty" has too many ambiguous mental parsings.  
When does "set" take place -- assigning a value to a property is different 
defining the property itself. Is "set" a verb so that we're talking about a 
property of sets/frozensets.  Is "set" a completed action so that the property 
has been set.

Let's stick with "propset" which has precedent as an svn action and serves as a 
short, simple mnemonic to the functionality.  

Also, I find that these unique words are easier to search for.  I once co-owned 
a magazine called Know Your Boston and it was very difficult for clients to 
find using Google.
