Problem Description:
I would like to access the pipeline object with Where-Object without curly brackets like so:
1..10 | Where-Object $_ % 2 -eq 1
to get only uneven numbers.
Product Studio item created by Connect Synchronizer due to creation of feedback ID 1014939 (http://connect.microsoft.com/PowerShell/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=1014939).
Repro Steps:
1..10 | Where-Object $_ % 2 -eq 1
Expected Results:
Gives an "Cannot validate argument on parameter 'Property'." error.
