Actually, that sounds pretty much what I proposed. My proposal was that [ ]
(actually RHS and LHS independently) would invoke a method using a well known
property name if it was present on the object to the left of the [ ]. If the
property was not present (own or inherited) then it would fall back to current
behavior.
