Property Inspector bug for keys with commas in the key name

[Mark Waddingham]

Indeed you can indirect through a variable - but you can’t do, e.g:

get the foo,bar,baz of me

Which was my point :)

Warmest Regards,

Mark.

P.S. Of course an obvious syntactic extension would be allowing quoting of the property keyword: the “foo,bar,baz” of me.
