/// vtkSMProperty has two types of values, checked and unchecked. This class by
/// default uses checked values, but it can be told to use unchecked values using
/// setUseUncheckedProperties(). When setUseUncheckedProperties() is set to
/// true, one can use accept()/reset() to accept or discard any changes
/// to the vtkSMProperty.
///
/// When setUseUncheckedProperties() is set to false (default), one can set
/// setAutoUpdateVTKObjects() to true (default false) to ensure that
/// vtkSMProxy::UpdateVTKObjects() is called whenever the property changes.
///
/// This class uses weak-references to both the Qt and ServerManager objects
/// hence it's safe to destroy either of those without updating the
/// pqPropertyLinks instance.

/// Also, pqPropertyLinks never uses any delayed timers or connections.
