It's already possible. It's a C# language features and is available since C# 
3.0, called "object initializers".

QPushButton pb = new QPushButton() {
	Text = "foo",
	WindowTitle = "bar"
};

Note that you have to use commas and can only assign properties. Passing real 
blocks to constructors like you can in Ruby isn't possible, afaik.
