But you cannot.

struct supplier
	sequence Name
end struct
"Name"=1 in a supplier context

<Oh dear, I think I know what you are going to say, but I'll carry on>

struct customer
	integer account_no
	sequence Name
end struct
"Name"=2 in a customer context

object.Name	1 or 2?

I claim that is not legal, not sensible to resolve dynamically.

Named subscripts can only be applied, in the code, to variables
declared of the appropriate type, I claim. I could be wrong.
