SDK 4.2.0 Beta 1 won't compile AppBase.getProperty

Given

  return Application.getApp().getProperty(s);
The compiler reports
  ERROR: fr235: test.mc: '$.Toybox.Application.AppBase.getProperty' is deprecated.
But fr235 doesn't support Application.Properties.getValue, so I *have* to use getProperty when compiling for fr235.

    What is the replacement for Toybox.Application.AppBase.getProperty

    If you're targeting an older device (devices that don't support sdk-2.4 or later) there isn't one.

    If you're targeting a newer device, then either Application.Properties.getValue, or Storage.getValue, depending on exactly what you're doing. But others have claimed here that neither is an exact replacement, and getProperty does some things better...
