Subject: Re: [Q] Array.delete

Moin!

Sorry for bringing up such an old topic, but I stumbled over the same 
issue today.

I don't see any reason, why the name of the method is Array.delete 
instead of Array.delete!, since Array.delete modifies the Array and 
returns the removed object. Any chance that that is changed, for the 
sake of the principle of least surprise? :)
