 Your point is that this syntax gives a better visual hint about this being
 about method calls, right? So here, attrcall would be some sort of dummy
 object placeholder? Why not. Though I am a bit reluctant with having two
 syntaxes.

 Do you mind reviewing this first, so that we can get #7753 in?

 I'll review your patch in return :-)
