I'm not opposed to the change, but I want to make one point:
certain characters (like dot) are special in regexes, so
when you want to search for them, you have to escape them,
whether in vi, or with grep, or perl, or whatever.
String concats with dot are uncommon enough; but member
access is quite common.
