overall i like the descriptor implementation

i'm not too sure about .get being a property though, to me that kind of looks weird. did you consider having it as a normal method like .set(...)

@adhami3310 wondering if you have any input here as well

Thanks, I wanted to try binding the descriptors to rx.Config in a followup.

Yeah, I was thinking about making it a normal method… This would also allow us to add f.e. a cache arg to get as well.
If @adhami3310 agrees, I will refactor it.
