Actually thats what GroovyResultSet does :)

It overloads the property access mechanism to provide access to named 
columns in the result set (i.e. providing getProperty()/setProperty()). 
Also it overloads getAt() setAt() so you can use integer subscripting 
into columns too...

// property access
sql.eachRow("select * from PERSON") { println("Hello ${it.firstname} 
${it.lastname}") }

// index access
sql.eachRow("select count(*) from PERSON") { answer = it[0] }
