Sorry about this. I had forgotten about the isomorphism between
chucking and function calls...Nothing to see here folks...move along
:P

Is attribute propagation when chucking values. e.g.
class A { B used; }
class B { float freq; }
A a;
440.0 => a.used.freq; // ICK!
It would be really lovely to have some way to just write
440.0 => a.freq;
Now this probably means some way of defining synthetic attributes (along the lines of what is in C#), but I think that this would greatly improve usability for programming geek ChucKists as well as musical ChucKists. At the very least, it allows code that uses a class to be unaware of it's implementation details. This is an actual problem for me as my algorithmic composition framework grows.
Just $0.02 worth
