Does
($k, $v) <== pop %hash; or ($k, $v) <== %hash.pop;
make sense to anyone except me?
Since we now have an explicit concept of pairs, one could consider a hash to be nothing but an unordered (but well indexed) list of pairs. So, C<< pop %hash >> would be a lot like C<< each >>, except, of course, that it deletes the pair at the same time.
If we do that, I'd also want to be able to
push %x, %y;
which would mean something like:
%x{%y.keys} <== %y{%y.keys};but be much easier to read.
