At the cost of turning every implicit property access within a 'with' into two 
property accesses (which are observable vis proxies or accessors)  even in 
normal cases that are far away from the crazy edges.

The most important thing for crazy edges is that they are well-defined.  I 
don't think we should make things better in the crazy zone at the cost of 
making them worse in outside the crazy zone.
