If the value is aquired, then it means that this object has that value,
aquired. I find it logical that the indexing will behave like that too, and
I'm pretty sure I have used it in some application.

Why is it a problem? It sounds like a feature to me. :-)
If you have an attribute that you don't want to be aquired, I guess you have
to make a computed attribute out of it.
