Darn tabbing...apologies for the previous post.

Here's my full question:

I have a map of maps, arbitrarily nested. Every individual map has a 
key/value entry that acts as a unique identifier for that map. I need to be 
able to write a function that, given the whole map of maps and the value of 
that unique ID, can dissoc the map with that unique ID.

I feel like I'm missing something basic. I'm aware of things like assoc-in 
and update-in for dealing with nested structures, but those require knowing 
the structure ahead of time. I need to be able to pass in a unique ID which 
could be at any level of maps within the map and dissoc it once it's 
"found."

My question: Is there a method or approach using plain Clojure maps that's 
eluding me? If not and this requires some kind of searching, is there a 
better data structure to use?
