I have had plenty of instances where destructuring a mapping would have be convenient. Relating to iterable destructuring, I would expect the syntax to be of the form "variable: key". I also think the curly-braces make it harder to visually parse what's going on. So I might suggest something a little like: objkey = object() mydict = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3, 4: 5, None: 6, objkey: 7} var1: 'a', var2: 4, var3: None, var4: objkey, **rest = mydict assert var1 == 1 assert var2 == 5 assert var3 == 6 assert var4 == 7 assert rest == {'b': 2, 'c': 3} On Thu, May 24, 2018 at 9:37 AM Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka@gmail.com> wrote:

Oh, right. It works if parameters is a var-keyword parameter.
