In that case, you're right. You don't need new SI* classes at all.

> well this means, I can just tell it to use vtkSIIntVectorProperty for one, and vtkStringVectorProperty for the other yes? - rather than entering this in every XML file, couldn't I tell the SMXXXPropertyclass to add it to the xml so that the relevant SI class was picked up automatically?

Alas no. Currently you have to specify it in XML.
