I find myself missing this feature with some regularity, I would
really like to have this.
One question I do have: what should it do with nonexistent keys? E.g.
my %first = (a => 1, b => 2);
my %second = %first{qw/a c/};
Should %second now contain «c => undef», not no c at all? I think I'm
currently leaning towards the latter, it seems like the more useful
behavior to me.
