Are personal assets automatically supported?

For example, if I there are account alias for joe and mary, can I do
lumen balance joe USD:mary
to check how much USD mary owes to bob?
If not, what would it take to support it? What about the syntax, is USD:mary good enough? Would the same work with USD:GC7BE5UFOO3BFHMNS6G66ANMLP4K22KIIIZAY6L6X67RWQA5GVHNBVNG, for example?
Not sure I understand your question -- Stellar has no notion of "owing" assets.
If you mean a credit asset issued by Mary, then you can do this:
lumen asset set USD-mary mary --code USD
lumen balance joe USD-maryDisconsidering the notion of owing assets, don't you think there could be an easy way to reference assets issued by other accounts from their aliases, instead of having to create aliases for the assets themselves?
Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. I like the CODE:issuer syntax -- I'll work on it.
Okay this works now and pushed to release v0.3.3. You can do:
# Directly
lumen balance joe USD:GDHFGIXGCXS2JYJYNF6LSXJOHACHFV7BHXNEERXUMBIWRJYGDEMF4VZ3
# With an account alias
lumen account set citibank GDHFGIXGCXS2JYJYNF6LSXJOHACHFV7BHXNEERXUMBIWRJYGDEMF4VZ3
lumen balance joe USD:citibank
# With a federated address
lumen balance joe USD:issuer*chase.comThanks for the suggestion!
