Jira (PUP-6091) Lookup CLI should use unquoted dot in key as sub-lookup

[Henrik Lindberg (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Henrik Lindberg commented on PUP-6091   Re: Lookup CLI should use unquoted dot in key as sub-lookup Here is what I think we should do: The dot-access notation is established and doing something different is just annoying. If we come up with a better thing in the future we can deal with that then. We should support dotted notation everywhere, in the lookup CLI, in the lookup function. Users that want a verbatim lookup of a key with a dot in the key needs to quote it. In order to make the dotted notation more of a general feature, we should also add an access function that applies to any hash or array. It should have an API that allows users to either use a single string to describe the access, or an array of keys.
