Issue #16993 has been updated by Dan0042 (Daniel DeLorme).
I like the concept but I'm going to bikeshed the naming: by itself "key_set" is unclear if you don't already know what it does. It sounds like the purpose is to set a key (like instance_variable_set). I'd prefer something a bit more descriptive like "keys_to_set"

Feature #16993: Sets: from hash keys using Hash#key_set
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/16993#change-111984
* Author: marcandre (Marc-Andre Lafortune)
* Status: Open
----------------------------------------
To create a set from hash keys currently implies a temporary array for all keys, rehashing all those keys and rebuilding a hash. Instead, the hash could be copied and its values set to `true`.
```ruby
h = {a: 1}
# Now:
Set.new(h.keys) # => Set[:a]
# After
h.key_set # => Set[:a], efficiently.
```
