Two lines? Surely, you can't be serious that you want to introduce at
least 10 lines in headers and source files to abstract the duplication
away. The probability of error in those two lines is much less than if
it is abstracted.

Even if they are, these fields are not implemented as properties now.
The patch as it stands is a monotonous improvement. Any further clean
ups can come in later patches.

Where do you want to put this? Over time, the parsing will obviously
have to become more complicated, and change the formatting of
individual characters in the textfield according to the result of
parsing.
