<pie_> has anyone considered being able to name a ... expression? something like "{a,b,c,...@wat}: wat"
<pie_> this way you wouldnt need to do a big removeattrs if you jsut wanted to access the extra arguments
<pie_> (a better syntax is probably possible, thats just an example)
<infinisil> Oh interesting, that would be a neat solution to this problem
<pie_> ok since you arent totally opposed to it i might as well open a nix issue xD
<pie_> jk :p
<pie_> is there a name for ... so that i can search for it
<{^_^}> nix#2998 (by deliciouslytyped, 23 seconds ago, open): Named ellipses
<pie_> im open to suggestions for improving my pitch
