    Description

      To help reduce the API clutter...

      Protected members of abstract classes should be visible, as they need
      to be implemented by subclasses. However, protected members of concrete
      classes should not be visible by default, as they are accessible only by
      subclasses; they should be visible through progressive disclosure for
      those who need to reimplement the spec.
