I remember Marcus wanted to add something like that but a
bit more
magical(via __get):

$this->mock = $this->MockBar;

Yeah, that's conceptually the same thing with more or
different 
syntactic sugar. I haven't been following all the
discussions here closely.

I looked up that discussion, and I think my intent is
different and less 
ambitous. I'm talking about way to construct objects that
let you choose 
flexibility or simplicity. And I think in general the way to
do that in 
PHP (5) is to keep the constructor flexible and add
simplified 
construction in creation methods or factories.
