I've seen the pattern you suggested used in the Tomahawk examples and elsewhere, but I never knew why it was necessary.
The original example had three parts: "messages.label.firstName". In this case, I think it's necessary to use brackets so you get something like messages.get( "label.firstName" ) and not messages.getLabel().getFirstName(). -- Wendy
