This I don't understand -- why would the '42' appear in the extraction syntax? I guess you meant "foo"?
Yes, sorry.
Maybe we can riff on
extract foo from d
? Though honestly that looks like it would be extracting d.foo, no d['foo'].
Yeah, but that might be useful too :-). How about:
extract key foo from d extract attribute foo import d
or
export key foo from d export attribute foo import d
As for "import", with both foo and d required to be identifiers.
The versions with "import" in them are DAAP (dead-as-a-parrot). No point in even talking about them. -- ~Ethan~
