Thanks for the pointers. I've gotten as far as grouping the keys by the prefix using `group-by`, and added clunky support for keys that aren't nested like so:
``` clj (defn- nested-key [k] (some-> (re-matches #"^(.*)--(.*)$" (name k)) second keyword)) (defn nest-relations "Walks the given hash-map, and moves any keys of the form <group>--<key> into a nested hash-map." [m] (let [grouped (group-by (fn [[k _]] (or (nested-key k) ::top)) m) top (::top grouped)] (-> grouped (dissoc ::top) (merge top)))) ``` I end up with vectors instead of hash-maps, and I'm particularly happy with the code, but it's getting there.
