Path values use refinements already:
>> a: 'a/b
== a/b
>> a/1
== a
From the AltMe conversation I know you are trying to avoid the GET IN stuff, but that problem has already been solved with get-paths:
>> a: reduce [func [] [print "hello"]] c: 1
== 1
>> a/:c
hello
>> print mold :a/:c
make function! [[][print "hello"]]
I would have to recommend that this request be rejected. It interferes with the existing refinement behavior of paths, and the problem it attempts to solve has already been solved in a better way.

File! allows the following:
Path! does not:
For building long paths with late evaluation, this would be very nice.
