Earlier I suggested to use another register.

This looks good too. It can be come very complex though:
tx_templavoila_pi1.parentRec.tx_templavoila_flex.field_container_1.field_container_2.field_regular
and it will not work with sections unless syntax becomes even more
complicated.

To me this functionality looks like coming from "we do it because we
can". I do not see having it as a big advantage. I can be mistaken,
of course :) I am not God to know all use cases :)

We can neither remove, nor change behaviour of any existing
registers. This should be remembered. Otherwise we can optimize code
as necessary :)
