Well - the idea showed up here, and got an immediate "that is nice, let's
do it" from you, followed by approval from a lot more people, and
very little controverse. So, it is pretty much "approved", even if not yet
detailed in an approved PEP. And 3.9 still sounds quite realistic for that
specific feature, unless no one actually writes the PEP.
But my bad, I thought the full approval process (PEP included) for that had
been carried on already.

Nonetheless, the mapping expansion syntax do allow for the
OP's needs, and is even a bit shorter than the version using "+".
