OK, I see this. I don't personally have much of a need for it,
but that's beside the point. The proposed with syntax isn't
going to cover this (obviously), so I'd suggest that the
discussion on thunks concentrate on how they might handle the
two cases of properties and this XML use.

At least, that's what I'd like to see in order to get a better
idea of how the thunk discussion is heading :-)
