What do you think about Constraint modifiers?

In case you didn't know, those are the things that come after the main
constraint
and modify how it acts. Currently we have:
  .Within(...)
  .IgnoreCase
  .RespectCase
  .AsCollection
  .NoClip
  .Comparer(...)

These are devilishly hard to get right in the syntax. For example, you can
type Is.Null.IgnoreCase in the current code, which makes no sense. Before 
putting more time into this, I wanted to ask whether you use these and
whether the current format works well.

I know some people are bothered by a form that looks like a getter property
modifying the state of the object, but you could also say it's just a new
paradigm and get used to it. Obviously, if we abandoned the modifier 
syntax, we would need to find other ways to do the same stuf.

Your thoughts?
