[cfe-dev] uniform call syntax

[clang c]

Could anyone who knows Clang comment how hard it would be to implement this (where would one start..) the desired feature is the ability for a method call a.f(b) to fall back to any suitable free-function f(a,b), for reasons explained in the first paper.
Has anyone tried to implement this already?

With this you don't have to choose between the superior decoupling of free functions & the superior autocomplete/function chaining of methods. Having to make this arbitrary choice is C++'s biggest frustration for me
