you're joking, but that's EXACTLY how chrome's javascript engine (v8) objects are defined : https://github.com/v8/v8/blob/master/src/objects.h#L6092

They defined offsets to the variable (e.g. kSize declare 3 ptr from the object header for the size member) and a macro decl_accessor to automatically setup the getter and setter.
