hmm, my fault - I didn't read the documentation.

Yes, _currently_ pointcuts need to be defined as methods:

   /**
    * @pointcut within(F3_TypoScript_TypoScriptObjectInterface)
    */
   public function typoScriptObjects() {}

I mixed that up with introductions.

But you're right, maybe we should change that because using properties
as an anchor for named pointcuts is more intuitive (as I've proven  
myself).
