We have a command for obtaining the difference between arrays, where "difference" is defined as having different keys.

What I could use at the moment is a means of obtaining an array which is the difference is both keys present in one but not in the other, and values that are different for those elements where they keys are present in both.

Considering how easy the first part is to code, I doubt a feature request would get a second glance.

function arrayDifferences pArray1, pArray2
   local tDiff1, tDiff2, tDiffs

   difference pArray1 with pArray2 into tDiff1
   difference pArray2 with pArray1 into tDiff2
   union tDiff1 with tDiff2 into tDiffs
   return tDiffs
end arrayDifferences

For the second part, I'm not sure what the output would look like... do you want an array with duplicate keys? A multidimensional array with the same keys in each but different values? What's the use case?
