Anyone considered giving Lua a Smalltalk/Objective-C like syntax?

This is what Objective-C looks like:

- addAttributeNamed:aName withValue:aString
{
   id newAttribute = [[Attribute alloc] init];
   [newAttribute setItemName:aName];
   [newAttribute setValue:aString];
   [attributeList addObject:newAttribute];
   return self;
}
