With the private name proposal obj.foo and obj.[#.foo] will always mean the same thing regardless of whether foo is scoped as a private name or as a regular property name. BTW, if you know that a property name is foo, why would you ever code obj["foo"] instead of obj.foo? [ ] should only be needed if the property name is not an identifier or is a computed value (hence my original example).
