Hi David,
You can not empty (reclaim the space) for internal properties (without
removing the edges or vertices).
Instead I would recommend using external properties... this is in fact the
primary reason that the BGL supports external properties. See the example
exterior_properties.cpp
Cheers,
Jeremy
