We have keyed_int shortcuts to get/set items on array like aggregates.
Is there a reason, that we not have keyed_str to access hash elements by STRING directly.
Currently a hash access inside parrot needs a key_new_string() which contructs a new Key PMC, where the string then gets extracted again.


This would add ~15 vtable entries: {get,set}_<type>_keyed_str, type, exists, defined, delete. Ah yes, and some ops variations ;-)

Comments welcome
