I probably shouldn't trim... since we're not supporting quotes in any
way, it might be desirable to have a key that is one or more spaces...
for whatever reason :)

Personally, I have a similar implementation I use all the time, but I
use forward slashes to separate keys.

<?php

    hashPathSet( $hash, 'this/is/the/hash/path', $value )

?>

Cheers,
Rob.
