[erlang-questions] Wanted additions to the maps module?

[José Valim]

A pop (also called take in ets:take2) operation would be helpful. It would
return and remove a value from the map in one operation:

-spec pop(Key, Map1) -> {Value, Map2} | error


I use it quite frequently and implementing it today requires two lookups. A
BIF would be handy and be able to perform it in one step.
