[ruby-core:86993] [Ruby trunk Feature#14249] Remove str[match_str]

Issue #14249 has been updated by Hanmac (Hans Mackowiak).


I can tell you that the `str[match_str]` is used in many codes, but i can't find any example now

and no, it is different from `str[regex]` !

I wonder if `str[match_str]` makes sense.

``` Ruby
"ana"['a'] => "a"

```

I would say this is not expected and it brings problems, for example when accessing nested hashes. For example:

``` Ruby
params = { "user" => "Nicolas Cage" } => {"user"=>"Nicolas Cage"}

params["user"]["age"] => "age"

```

I think `str[regexp]` is enough and that `str[match_str]` can be removed.
