Well, if you want to get picky there is the '!' operator defined in
Data.Map:
universe ! "Milky Way" ! "Sun"
I second that. I particularly like the elimination of ]'s. We certainly
need some symbol to separate the map and the key; but we do really need
to also mark "here be the end of the key"?
(Evidently, this carries over to array indexing and function application
too, i.e., a!!i vs a[i], f$x or f x vs f(x).)
