If you request for features please come up with something realistic and also 
provide good
information how it then should work. E.g. provide grammar how the syntax and 
semantics work. And
if it is for compatibility you should also be able to provide real pascal 
examples that show how
ambigious constructs are handled by Delphi.

So please answer first the question that Marco already wrote before continueing 
other discussions
about this topic:

Take as example the reference to a.b.c.d.

- Can someone provide the grammar how an identifier looks like in Delphi?
- How shall the compiler detect that "a.b" is an unit if a is also defined as a 
record that
doesn't contain a field b?
- How shall the compiler handle if "a.b.c" is an unit and a.b.c is class?

So please come with a design instead of just asking give me this feature in one 
line. Because if
the feature was really important and simple it was for sure already 
implemented. The left over
features are therefor not in the category simple anymore. Also important is 
debatable because
we've already lived without them for years.

Peter
