Hi,
I feel that, in any case, allowing unrestricted fetching properties in const
expression in is semantically incorrect, because properties are fundamentally
mutable. I am not speaking of creative use of code in order to achieve the
effect, but of the regular semantics of properties.
For me, it seems reasonable to restrict the feature to readonly properties
(including those of enums), because those are effectively immutable by design.
