Hi Raymond, Sorry for not responding to this sooner. I'll post something to the issue tracker. In brief, this seems an improvement over the earlier proposal, just because there are no problems with hashes or container confusion. I'm still -0 on it, though---it just seems like too much magic: confusion will happen much more rarely, but it'll be that much more difficult to explain when it does occur. IOW I wouldn't do this if it were just up to me, but not going to object if there's support from you and others.
