hey, kotlin experts
i'm wondering if this is a bug
i've defined the following:
```
fun AbstractSelect.items(vararg itemId: Any) = addItems(itemId)
fun AbstractSelect.items(itemIds: Collection&lt;Any&gt;) = addItems(itemIds)
```
the problem is that the existing java class already has a class named `items`
```
public abstract class AbstractSelect {
    protected Container items;
    // blah blah blah
}

public class ComboBox extends AbstractSelect {
    ...
}
```
i'm using it like this:
```
ComboBox().items("foo", "bar", "baz")
```
and the compiler complains:
`Error:(16, 13) Kotlin: Cannot access 'items': it is protected/*protected and package*/ in 'ComboBox'`
