In fact, that would be a cool feature for ORMs. IMHO instead of ugly call chain with filters, slicing is a better option (on `__class_getattr__`). As said there are some disadvantages but i think this proposal deserves a PEP.
I really don't see why. Is () so much different than [] to you? Because that seems like the only difference here.
You can't assign to function calls. So:
x(b=1) = 5
won't work, but
x[b=1] = 5
could work
Ah. That's a strong argument I can get behind!
