Along the same line of though... I would rather see the colon notation 
deprecated all together... as it doesn't add anything which cannot be 
done with the regular syntax... plus it introduce inconsistency and 
confusion in Lua's core libraries... e.g. io seems to gratuitously 
favor the colon notation while all the other core libraries stick with 
the dot...
