I though of using a magic symbol, $, for that -- a[$-n]. But aside from the issue of using one of the 2 remaining unused ascii symbols for something that can already be done, it would not work in a slice call.
Is that like where you have 1 more shot on your camera and you don't want to use it for fear that something more spectacular might show up afterward? (and hope that you didn't leave your lens cap on when you finally take the picture!) :-)
I don't think it's that bad; I count 3: "!", "$" and "?". :-)
