What about no name at all for the scalar case:
a['hello'] += 1 a['bye'] -= 2
I like this despite the minor surprise that it works even when a['hello'] is uninitialized.
+1
and if the value is a list:
a['hello']= [1, 2, 3]
a['hello']+= [4] # adding the brackets is a lot simpler than
typing append or extend.Any user is free to add his/her own subclass to handle defaults.
