can't assign instance fields in go blocks

Question

IOC doesn't properly handle set!. The following snippet fails to compile because set! is treated like a function call, evaluating field access first instead of treating the whole form as a field instance assignment.

(a/go (set! (.-gridx (java.awt.GridBagConstraints.)) (a/<! (a/go 0))))
