Storage VIs: 'Property does not exist' error

I am writing a utility (LV8.0) to gather properties from a TDM file channel.  I use the Storage:Advanced Storage:List Properties.vi to list all possible properties, and then iterate through this list of supposedly valid property names using Get Property.vi.  Those properties which do not have data produce a warning (2552) like you would expect.  However, when getting the property for 'Waveform time mode', Get Property.vi produces error -2563: This property does not exist.
 
The 'Waveform time mode' property should be a valid, though null, property.  Why should it produce an error?  Is this a bug?
 
I have attached a short VI to reproduce the error.

Steve,

I checked into this error for you and I am inclined to agree with you.  I will report this issue to R&D so that we can continue to improve LabVIEW.  Good catch here!
