... Supporting Rarr.field['home address'] and Rarr.field('home address') at the same time sounds unnecessary to me. Moreover having a Rarr.field('home_address')[32] (for example) looks a bit strange, and I think Rarr.field['home_address'][32] would be better. But I repeat, this is my personal feeling.
I know that dropping support of __call__() in field will make the change backward incompatible, but perhaps now is a good time to define a better interface to the RecArray object. Another possibility maybe to raise a deprecation warning for such an use for a couple of releases.
I completely agree. -- Russell
