Experimenting with removing/improving some other types while implementing RFC 0821. revealed that this function needed to preserve its input type when that type was narrower than just
string
, so introduce a type parameter to keep that information around. Then, switch to usingObject.create(null)
so it can be used in theRecord
type safely.Pulling this out into its own commit makes it easier to land, and it also allows us to guarantee that we are making changes only to the types and module layout for the PR implementing RFC 0821.
