It should be a syntax error, period. Like

One idea I was toying with was to allow . in binary selectors, except
for the special #. of course; this goes along with the idea of
considering . to be a statement terminator only if not followed by
whitespace (avoiding the unintuitive behavior of {1.0.2.0}). For example,
1..5 do: [ :i | Transcript show: i ]
