If context is not given, I can't tell if foo.Bar() is a function of package
foo or a method of variable foo.
That is, dot is used both for package namespace and method call.
Example:
type T struct {
}
func (t T) Println(s string) {
fmt.Println("method: " + s)
}
func main() {
fmt.Println("hello from package function")
fmt := T{}
fmt.Println("hello")
}

I wonder if such an ambiguity came into Go...
1) on purpose, since the dot (.) is easy on the eye and simple key stroke
(shift not needed) ?
2) by accident, since keyboards lack convenient alternate symbols ?
3) for other reasons ?
