FWIW, I think it would be reasonable to add 'hash-keys'. Many users
are accustomed to writing in a style that's made more convenient by
'hash-keys', and in cases where efficiency is not crucial, I think
it's a fine style. Also, sometimes the values aren't needed.
IMO, we can afford to add a few conveniences such as this.
