I didn't fully realize this syntax until you point out. Just try it out in
our case and this works well. I think My problem is mostly resolved
without the need of this patch. Thanks!
It's still good to do something about the normal (func(v)).* syntax
if it's still considered legal. I will give a try to expanding it more
cleverly and see if we can avoid the duplicate evaluation issue.
