Hi:

How does it get started, i.e. how does it know how to find properties associated with the pvname?
I forgot the circumstances, but one point at the SLAC meeting
was that we might have to abandon the idea of "fred" == "fred.VAL".

If you want the default value, you'll have to use "fred.value"
in the new command-line 'caget' or the 'probe' GUI.
If you use "fred", you will get _all_ properties of fred.

It'll be consistent for the whole hierarchy:
In case "fred.limits" is a structure, "fred.limits" will get
all structure elements. "fred.limits.display.high" might drill
down to a structure element.
