Here is a "new" proposal:

serializing the "property"
* that way if later we really need to have several classes by document
(which does not actually bring anything I agree with Denis) we support
wiki:space.page^property as a shortcut of
wiki:space.page^firstclass.property. It would be a first but it's not
hard to do technically. If we don't for sure we can always remove the
"." escaping which is just a useless escaping which is supported
properly by reference parser and otherwise we don't really break the
syntax by adding the classname part to the reference since the
separator is already protected.
WDYT ?

I really need to move on on this and I'm -1 to introduce right now a
wiki:space.page^classname.property syntax where you never know what to
put as classname.

I agree that we should not limit ourselves, but I really do not see the
limit here. What would be the advantage of having several class defined the same document ?

+1, if we decide that we only want at most one class per document.
