CC for 'x.|' and 'x[0].|' still offers different list of possibilities - see attached image.

Or is that a feature?

The array object offers properly Array object type items.

The array element offers just default Object items.

It is impossible to identify the type of the element since it can be defined by some other expression depending on
runtime environment. I admit the type analysis can be done if the index is defined by a number or by a simple expression
and the assignment as well, but this doesn't sound like a bug to me.
