I'd like to wait just a bit on this patch -- I'm not sure we need or want the proxy class for this. It may be that it falls out naturally somehow when we have "is rw" semantics implemented for subs. OTOH, if it's an important feature that is being needed for applications in Rakudo, let me know and I'll look at it closer for immediate application. Pm
