Vectorized .all method on arrays to transparently access all members

vectorized-arrays.js

Object.defineProperty(Array.prototype, 'all', {
  get: function () {
    return new Proxy(this, {
      get: function(target, name, receiver) {
        return target.map(x => x[name]);
      },
      set: function (target, name, value) {
        target.forEach(x => x[name] = value);
      },
      // ... call:, etc.
    });
  },
});


/// EXAMPLE:

var a = [
  {x: 1},
  {x: 2},
  {x: 3}
];

console.log(a.all.x.join(', '));

//a.all.x *= 10; -- doesn't work because:
// <=> a.all.x = a.all.x * 10;
// <=> a.all.x = [1, 2, 3] * 10;
// <=> a.all.x = NaN;

a.all.x = 10;

console.log(a.all.x.join(', '));
