It says that there may be modules that expect lfun::`[]() to be called when they are indexed. The only way normal pike code can emulate that behaviour dynamically is by using the `[] operator to index the module.
Well, yes, I and perhaps 50 other people in the world know that.
I was referring to the manual not exactly beeing clear-as-glass with regard to this issue.
It's not, as an example, written in the tutorial when it mentions modules.
And yet again, why is it `[] and not `->? `-> feels more natural for this operation (indexing with (usually) constant string, instead of dynamic variable)
