OK, but then please don't call [...] a block. Now it's an expression
sequence, a parse tree, or whatever, but not a closure (or a very
specific one)

If [a.b.c] piped is possible, then [a.b.c] do: [:aStatement|
aStatement value] should be possible to, shouldn't it ?
Or [a.b.c] addStatement: [d]
or [a.b.c] at: 2 put: [e]
