Re: Obsoleting hash-table-* functions in subr-x in favor of map-* functions

[Bozhidar Batsov]

P.S. I'm aware this was borrowed from the likes of Clojure (as was seq), but sometimes it's not a great idea to bring in external terminology 1:1. Anyways, that's not major. When I added those hash-table specific function the point was to extend a specific API, not to look for some generic solution.

Sounds a bit strange to me. Those are somewhat basic hash-table-specific stuff. If you're going to obsolete them, why not obsolete everything except hash-table constructors? Somewhere a line has to be drawn. 

Btw, I'm still not sure about the "map" naming, as this is a term that's not used at all in Emacs Lisp terminology and will be the source of a lot of confusing I guess.

Hi,

I'm thinking about obsoleting `hash-table-empty-p', `hash-table-keys'
and `hash-table-values' defined in subr-x in favor of their map-*
equivalent.

WDYT?

Cheers,
Nico
