merge -> [coll]

sh*t,

how can i use the merge message to merge stuff into a coll without
beeing limited to the use of int as index?

i need symbols as index ... and i really would like to avoid doing the
"merge" stuff outside the coll.

can it be done with the merge message somehow?

"merge index some more stuff"

[coll
index, here is already something;

Seems to work fine for me if you replace the numeric index with the symbol index: "merge this_index 1 2 3" for example.

Yeah it works for me too. Perhaps a patch illustrating what doesn't work for you?
