Comment (by boonebgorges):

 Thanks for the report, @sbrajesh. I'm not sure that we always need to
 maintain backward compatibility for arbitrary properties, but we
 absolutely cannot break compatibility with `is_user_member` (and
 `front_template`, which suffers from the same problem).

 At the moment, I don't see a benefit to storing arbitrary data in an array
 rather than directly as properties on the object; this would be useful if
 we were protecting access somehow, or if we did actual OOP things with the
 object, but we don't.
