Are you proposing making even "normal" scalar, hash, and array access
go through these methods?  Wouldn't that slow everything way down?

It's like you're proposing an extension to the current tie system to
deal with more operators, and then saying "no variable can have a
value, they all have to be ties to objects".  Is that what you're
suggesting?
