    //   1) The value of the first property is Frozen.  We might be able to

    //      down the line.

    // * If cloning is required, the first property value must be a Freezable,

    // * Whether or not any of the intermediate objects are DependencyObject or

    // * Whether or not any of the intermediate properties are DP or not - this
    //   is supposed to work whether it's a CLR property or DependencyProperty.
    // * Whether or not any of the intermediate properties are animatable or not.
