While hacking on a compare-locales impl for l20n, we came across
unresolved entities and attributes.
That is hashes without index and/or default values, used for either the
value or an attribute.
Is there a usecase for that?
My personal take is that that should be a compiler error.
Most prominently, I think that hash keys are language-internal, and as
such shouldn't be exposed to the outer world.
If we had lists, I'd be inclined to let those cross the border back to
the program. Mostly because I can see them being used for configuration.
Though at that point one could possibly also just return a string with
tokens. Not sure.
Basically, I wonder if we have an actual use case for this.
And once you construct one, I might answer with a macro to do that.
Adding that 'cause of how I did my last experiment with referencing
internal manifolds.
