This is much like
var obj = {
field1: 3
field2 : 4
field3 : obj.field2+3
}
which falls apart because obj isn't technically fully defined, and doesn't
have a field2. So your second field2.field4 wouldn't be able to reference
the previous object created for field2.field3.
it would be a huge complexity for engines to create objects....
