Summary:                    Methods and properties can't have the same names
Description: 
class C {
  Test : int { get { 1 } }
  Test () : int { 1 }
}
// error: method C.Test() : int redefined in `C'
// error:   first definition here as property `C.Test : int'

// Is that by design ? If so - what's the rationle behind it ?
// Makes no sense to me.

This is by design:

1) code like this  def x = C().Test;  is ambiguous
2) it is usually an error if you don't know what construct you want to
use: property or method
