This specific syntax is taken by designated initializers. In

void A::foo()
{
    B b{ .var = 42 };
};

are you initializing the `var` data member of B via aggregate init, or
assigning 42 to this->var and then using some other form of init for B?

That having been said, I'd hardly claim that this is a "major" problem
deserving its own syntax; renaming the parameter or the member variables
following proper code conventions sounds like a better idea anyways.
