Hi
I tested a concept iteration over array in format [key1, value1, key2,
value2, .. ] - what is nice, it works for [[key1,value1],[key2, value2],
...] too
It is only a few lines more to current code, and this change doesn't break
a compatibility.
Do you think, so this patch is acceptable?
Ideas, comments?
Regards
Pavel
