[~melix] to get this right...
{code}
def foo(String s){}
def x = 1
foo("$x")
{code}
you want this code to fail because a String is not a GString? Additionally you 
want 
{code}
def x = 1
String s = "$x"
{code}
to fail for the same reason?

My point being m["$k"] is still of a different category than the two above, if 
we are talking here about getAt(Object). If there is getAt(String) we are 
talking about the first example I gave.

And there is actually getAt(Object) for Map and getAt(String) for Object. This 
means both are available here. In dynamic Groovy it is therefore 100% legal and 
working to use a GString to find a String key in a map. What causes problems is 
using GString keys in the map literal and forcing the object variant like 
[("$k"):v], and then looking it up using just a String. But that is not what 
this issue is about.
