So far the cast syntax seems to be the most popular:
(adaptername)ob (dc)context/title
Why don't we use adaptername(ob)? Then it looks exactely like in Python! Less to memorize.
Because that would be the top of a slippery slope.
People would want:
callable(arg1, arg2, arg3)
eventually:
foo/bar/callable(x/y, a/b/c)/q/r
which is arguably the path to madness.
A number of folks replid negatively to this idea when it was noted in the proposal.
