Comment:
How would you decide which part is the left side of the method and which
part becomes the name of the first argument? For setters it's obvious, but
Cocoa has lots of APIs.
Your proposal sounds also too magical in my taste. It can be confusing for
the new learner specifically (when he browses API reference). Finally,
there is the problem of creating such selectors (not calling them).
We do not intend to change the syntax any time soon, sorry.
