How about a Feature Exchange for adding arrays ? (i.e. not
dictionaries, but actual arrays with numeric indices and linear access

In LiveCode, we currently call these "proper lists".
LiveCode arrays currently have O(log N) read and insertion complexity in
the general case (which is better than linear).
If we were to add proper lists, we would probably use an implementation
with O(1) read and O(N) insertion complexity in the general case.
If you need proper lists, LiveCode Builder already provides them with
the "List" type.
