Use-case: You want a type-safe way to access deeply nested properties in an object.

@example
```

	folder: {
		subfolder: {

declare function open<Path extends ProjectPaths>(path: Path): void;

open('filename'); // Pass
open('folder.subfolder'); // Pass
open('folder.subfolder.filename'); // Pass
open('foo'); // TypeError

// Also works with arrays
open('listA.1'); // Pass
open('listB.0'); // Pass
open('listB.1'); // TypeError. Because listB only has one element.
