>             Project: Commons JEXL
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 3.1
>            Reporter: Henri Biestro
>            Assignee: Henri Biestro
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 3.2
>
>
> WHAT:
> The 'safe navigation' operator (?.) - allowing a null property to stop and return null in a navigation expression - has been introduced. However, in many occasions, being able to let the '.' and '[...]' operators behave 'safely' without reverting to the 'lenient' mode  would be very convenient.
> Moreover, it seems 3.1 already allow 'safe' / silent navigation when calling methods / functions; fixing this behaviour will break existing scripts. Explicitly introducing this 'safe' behaviour would mitigate the (3.2) migration cost greatly.
> HOW:
> Builder option to set the flag, inject checking the flag when node.isSafeLhs(...) is used.
