PSS — New PSS Issue: Private state members

In the PSDL grammar of the Persistent State Service, orbos/99-07-07,
state members are merely declared. This makes all such members
inherently public. What is the rationale behind public-only state
members? Since storage objects are almost the same as valuetypes, it
seems an obvious extension that any object, persistent or not, might
have members that should not be exposed to external objects or even
derived types. Could this syntax be changed to more closely resemble
valuetypes? (See also issue 3226 on factory declarators and the
(currently unnumbered) issues on scoping and grammar complexity.)
