Attached.

Only thing that gave me pause is the presence of the undocumented `slice_array()` function, which is used by the `->`
operator.I think I might like to see it renamed `avals(hstore, text[])` if it ever gets documented, as it nicely
complementsthe existing `avals(hstore)` function. 

Best,

David
