Summary0004402: Unneeded restriction in referencing record/set fields
DescriptionThe current text says:
"Elements of a record shall be referenced by the dot notation TypeOrValueId.ElementId, where TypeOrValueId resolves to the name of a structured type or variable."
It is unneeded to restrict the reference to variables only, it should be allowed for values (all kind) and templates.

Maybe this issue can be merged with issue#0004269, or is it a duplicate?

No, this issue differs from CR4269. While this one is a simple wrong wording that needs to be corrected (pls. note, the BNF allows using field/index references in constant expressions, template variables etc.), CR4269 requests for a new feature that needs to be discussed. Thus this CR can be resolved independent of CR4269.

Indeed, already now more is allowed for the dot notation than just variables - still, it is quite artificial not to allow function invocations as well. I uploaded a proposal which addresses both CRs - please check.

The resolution is ok.
