Your wish has been granted. This can be implemented in ES3.1 as follows:
function link(obj, prop, target, tprop) {
Object.defineProperty(obj, prop,
{get: function() { return target[tprop]; },
set: function(x) { target[tprop] = x; },
enumerable: true
});
}
(Don't add methods to Object.prototype; it's not necessary, and
Object.prototype is a global namespace that is subject to conflicts.)
