Honestly, I don't like this macro trick. It's bad in couple of ways:
 - it hides what actually is done with the fields of r structure
   (after you get that they are fields!)
 - it breaks possibility to compile time (type) checks

I will listen what others say, but I'm in favour not to proceed like this.
