that's very, very cool!

fortunately that's rather easy.
b: copy []
append b to-set-word "foo"
append b "bar"
obj: make object! b
probe obj
make object! [
foo: "bar"
]

you'll probably prefer to construct objects like shown above, but ...
prepare: func [ x ] [
r: make type? x length? x
foreach [ k v ] x [
repend r [ to-set-word k v ]
]
r
]
make object! prepare ["x" 1 "y" 2 "z" 3]
