I am with Stanislav on this one or rather meh. It also goes against what you usually advocate: there should be only one way to achieve things (I remember your /fluent interface/ example very well). Unless you changed your mind regarding that. Hence, it is nice syntactic sugar but it does not allow us to solve problems that we cannot solve already. -- Richard "Fleshgrinder" Fussenegger
