08:16 PM Ruby Feature #11747 (Rejected): "bury" feature, similar to 'dig' but opposite

In Matz's recent Rubyconf talk, he used this example for the new 'dig' feature coming in Ruby 2.3:
~~~ruby
# we want this
data[:users][0][:name]
# we can do this w/o nil errors
data.dig(:users, 0, :name)
~~~
What I'm proposi... dam13n (damien sutevski)
