Is there some 'delegate' way to do the following?

val container: Container
var property: Int
  set(value) {
    container.property = value
  }
  get() {
    container.property
  }

I was thinking about something like this, but that doesn't work obviously

val container: Container
var property: Int by container.property

nhaarman: If you need this kind of code multiple times, you could write your own delegate

I tried, but it seems like this still needs a lot of boilerplate every time

@nhaarman can you show me what you've tried so far?
