Lol, I assumed that since it inherited from feature it would be
available
but I now see that it is overwritten to return null.

I'm going to have to vote yes ;p

Vector features don't have a createPopup method, so I'm not really sure
that this is going to do what you want. Can you explain how you think
this will work?
Anyway, setting the lonlat is simple: feature.lonlat =
feature.geometry.getBounds().getCenterLonLat();
