I am aware of that, thanks.  The whole point of this discussion was to
find out whether there are serious reasons why one should not have
this in the standard lib.  Array#first and #last *are* in the standard
lib already and at the moment I do not see any reason why Array#first=
and Array#last= should not be.

Kind regards
