I would like to submit the following RFC for your consideration:

This is based on one off the suggestions made in
https://externals.io/message/109220, and some existing discussion on the
topic can be found in that thread.
The primary motivation for this feature is to close the currently rather
wide gap between the use of ad-hoc array structures, and the use of
well-defined and type-safe value objects. The latter is what we want people
to use, but the former is, unfortunately, what is *easy* to use.
The amount of boilerplate this would cut down for e.g. projects using DI
and DTOs is unfathomable.
How does this work together with reflection? Will reflection see the
properties _and_ the extended constructor definitions?
thanks,
- Markus
