A proposal. Very often dict are used as a deeply nested carrier of
data, usually decoded from JSON. Sometimes I needed to get some of
this data, something like this:
data["users"][0]["address"]["street"]
What about something like this instead?
data.get_deep("users", 0, "address", "street")
and also, instead of this
try:
result = data["users"][0]["address"]["street"]
except KeyError, IndexError:
result = "second star"
write this:
data.get_deep("users", 0, "address", "street", default="second star")
?
