Hi internals,
Bob and I would like to present a new typed properties proposal for your

Hi Nikita, and Bob,
Thanks for the extremely thorough RFC. I think you've made a great case
for the decisions you've taken, and it's reassuring to see so many
edge-cases considered. In particular, the well-considered support for
references makes it feel like a complete feature. The lack of "callable"
is the only caveat that might surprise users, but I think it's
justified, because we can't actually guarantee that something that was
callable when it went in will be callable when it comes out.
One thing that I would be interested to hear, is whether any of the
groundwork laid here - particularly for typed references - would be
useful if we were to introduce typed local variables in future. I don't
want to derail the thread discussing exactly how this would work, but
does anyone have a general hunch of whether this "brings us closer", IF
we decided that was where we wanted to go?
Regards,
