Not to continue to toot my own horn; but RFC139 addresses
the same issue space (:-) in a somewhat different way.
It considers the "binding operator" to be a kind of method
invocator, similar to ->, but with a different concept of
what an "object" is on its left-hand side.
If you have any thoughts on my approach, I'd be interested
in hearing them.
