[Proposal] Calling base() in an override calls method in base class that it overrides

[ronnygunawan]

class Parent
{
    public Parent()
    {
    }
    public virtual void Foo(int x)
    {
    }
    public virtual void Bar()
    {
    }
}

class Child : Parent
{
    public override void Foo(int x)
    {
        base(x); // this calls base.Foo(x);
        base.Bar();
    }
    public override void Bar()
    {
        base(); // this calls base.Bar() and has nothing to do with the constructor
    }
}

This might conflict with the base(T) syntax for the next stage of DIM.

[ronnygunawan]

It might be ok:

base(T); // base(T) is neither an expression nor a statement, this line raises error
base(x); // no issue
base(T)(x); // no issue
T.base(x); // no issue

[huoyaoyuan]

base(T); // base(T) is neither an expression nor a statement, this line raises error

This makes syntax structure influenced by semantics(to look up what T means), which harms compiler very much.
