I'm making good use out of UFCS functions that work like
properties, so to remain consistent with struct/class calling
syntax, I would expect to have the ability to define functions
that have property semantics at the module level.
I really think that modules should have properties anyway, and
since I can do it, I am doing it, and it works great.
My guess is that if @property gets enforced, we'll see a lot of
functions with empty parameter lists being defined as @property
for the sole reason to get rid of having to type in the ().
