Semantic parses even if incorrect operator used

Whether I create a pointer to a user defined object or instantiate a user
defined object, I can interchangeably use the -> or . operators to access
members/methods.

=== EXAMPLE ===

#include <iostream>

struct MyStruct
{
  MyStruct( void ) { }
  ~MyStruct( void ) { }

  int data;
  int getData( void ) const { return data; }
};

int main( void )
{
  MyStruct* ms = new MyStruct();

  ms. // works

  return 0;
}

=== END EXAMPLE ===
