I'm probably just inexperienced and idiotic, but what's wrong with
simple 'get_from_aggregate target, aggregate, key' and maybe
'get_list_from_aggregate target_list, aggregate, key_list'?  (Obviously
we'd shorten the names, but you get the idea.)  target would be set to
the actual element, not just a copy of it, so setting that would set the
original.  Individual aggregate types could decide for themselves what
to do about currently non-existent keys.
