Description
This issue tracks any work needed for the Angular compiler to support dot shorthands.
From context that @leonsenft provided, although dot shorthands will create new AST nodes, they won't work properly because no context can be provided to resolve the dot shorthand.
So something like <some-cmp [intProp]=".parse(stringExpr) />
won't work.
We'll prohibit the dot shorthands pattern in templates for now, and this will automatically be the case when the AST nodes for dot shorthands get added.
TLDR;; No work needed.
Will re-open if that's not the case anymore.
