a. is  easy not difficult to solve
b. this is extremely none trivial. However we are going to offer a compromise where we allow standard field  constraints syntax, but internally its switched to a predicate.

I think its a seperate problem.
    

Hmmm I think our problems might be at least related. 

If i understand it right, the reasons you cant do something like 

Bar(foo.tuo == "...")

is because 

a. the extracter mechanism needs to build a path from a Bar to its Foo and then
extract the string from the Foo
b. the rule engine needs to know which rules need to be checked when any object
in a path is modified, i.e. when the Bar changes its foo or when the foo changes
its tuo string

or have i missed something?
