sure, but i'm talking about style, not about compiler demands.

i'm afraid i didn't understood you here.

yet i never saw this:
struct S { int n; }
S s; s.n(42);
the whole concept of properties (not bolted into the compiler yet) is to
emulate *fields*. so it's stylistically right to declare something as a
property if one wants to use it like `foo = 42;`. that means `mymodule.foo
= 42;` actually. yet `42.foo` means `42.module.foo`, which even looks
wrong.
