+//! namedmodes — the `PROP` command sets or queries channel modes by long name
+//! instead of by letter, e.g. `PROP #chan +op nick +moderated -limit`. Names map to
+//! echoIRCd's channel-mode letters and go through the normal MODE machinery
+//! (`core_mode::apply_mode`), so all the usual permission checks apply. `PROP #chan`
+//! with no changes lists the modes currently set, by name.
