Why are

MutableState<T>.setValue

/

MutableState<T>.getValue

extension methods instead of instance methods? This creates some confusion for me when I write

by state{}

and it errors, and I need to use the import quickfix.

https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/compose#0.1.0-dev09:

[Mutable]State property delegate operators moved to extensions to support Kotlin 1.4 property delegate optimizations. Callers must add imports to continue using by state { ... } or by mutableStateOf(...). (I5312c)

Ideally we can get studio doing this in one step rather than several, but yeah, it's to benefit from the inlining in 1.4

yeah, plan on the IDE doing a better job w/ this at some point
