Field selection with recursive path operator "..."

[nichtich]

How about a path operator ... that selects of fields and subfields?:

# { foo => "  x ", bar => { foo = "  y "} }
trim("...foo") # { foo => "x", bar => { foo = "y"} }

What about Data::Seek as a general solution for traversing complex hashes

This feature (and much more) will be available in the next release of Catmandu with the visitor() bind:

do visitor()
    if all_match(key,foo)
        trim(scalar)
    end
end

this one can be closed, I suppose? The magic visitor bind has been released.

Visitor is one route. @nics is working on a new Fix path algorithm that can do the requests shorthand in a future release of Catmandu

See #56 first.
