{% set %} doesn't work with objects

[fetis]

This code

{% set obj = {} %}
{% set obj.property = 111 %}

produces an error "Template render error: (....) TypeError: Cannot call method 'charAt' of undefined"

Correct, this doesn't work in Jinja either. {% set %} is for setting variables, not for mutating them.
