Thanks. Makes sense. We could consider a del(Key,Value), where Value is unified with the current value. The code could be simplified using SSU (=>). And of course, we need documentation ... |

This may need more work, but I just wanted to post this PR for discussion and see if this is something others may find useful. While working with dictionary based data structures, I've come to rely on
put(KeyPath, Value), but there is no "function" for deleting keys. This would add another predefineddelconsistent in naming withdel_dict/4that also accepts a keypath.
