Get link to nested object by string key

Question

For example, I have an object:

var model = {user:{name: 'Mike', phones:{mobile: '00000'}}};

and a string key:

var string_key = 'user.phones.mobile';

I can parse it to get the array key:

var keys = string_key.split('.');

How can I can get link to object phones from model?

By doing this:

model[keys[0]][keys[1]][keys[2]];

This seems a bit strange though..
