get()ing nested properties using dot-notation works, so it seems logical that it should work during set() as well. I needed it today, so implemented it.
It behaves like a mkdir -p, creating objects along the path if they don't exist. The other option is to throw in error in that case. I haven't thought through the pros/cons of each.
If this is a desired feature, I'll happily add some tests & polish it up.
