Something like this?

srcArray = [10, 20, 30, 100, 60];
cmpArray = [10, 3, 25, 100];

var result = cmpArray.filter(function(item, index){
    return srcArray.contains(item);
});

The result array would just contain elements that are in both arrays.  You
could modify it to support different typs of arrays if you like.

Well, merge does 2 things: override existing props, and eventually add the
new ones. I need only the override. So it's a 'subset' of the merge
functionality.
