This syntax applies to all collections (_form, _query, globals, and
user-created collections). I'm just wondering -- who is using the
new syntax? If not, is it because you don't know about it or don't
feel comfortable with it?
In my case it is mainly because I forgot you can do that. Probably
read an old example and used the old syntax and have done ever since.
The new syntax is much clearer.
In fact I use the new syntax for other collections like _form.

Hi,
It seems very few people are using the modern (v3) collection
referencing syntax:
session{"foo"} := "bar"
$foo := session{"foo"}
instead of:
set session("foo"; "bar")
$foo := get session("foo")
To me the first syntax is clearer and much more natural, as soon as
you think of a collection as an associative array that is being
indexed by a text key instead of a number like 4D arrays.
