As far as I understand calling built-in properties eg. 
``foo.stringof()`` is not allowed. And it is not an lvalue. So no 
referencing of a built-in properties possible either.

I find this behavior most suitable for properties. The only exception is 
built-in ``.reverse`` and ``.sort`` properties which seems counter 
intuitive to me to be used without (). I think this should be something 
callable (built-in functions, inherited methods, etc.) rather than 
properties.
