Can either of these new behaviors be disabled in bash 5.0.2 ?

Please , in some future versions of bash, could it provide
support / help for avoiding "quoting hell", in such situations
as :
$ echo "
Error: Cannot find file '/missing/file_1'.
Error: Cannot find file '/missing/file_2'.
" | while read line; do
cmd='if [[ '$'"'"$line"$'"'' =~
^[^'"\\'"']*

file or in the forthcoming bash-4.4 release ?
I think it should, as it is rather unfair of bash to make its
internal bookkeeping errors appear as if they could be
user programming errors.

Or is there some way to test if a variable is an associative array or not?

Good day list -
There seems to be no way of testing if an array variable is associative or not ,
yet attempting to make associative assigments to a normal array results in a
syntax error .
I have something like:
declare -xr TYPE_ARRAY=0 TYPE_ASSOC=1
function f()
{ declare -n an_arra

I don't understand why this emits any output :

Having defined a function _F to return a non-zero return status :

_F returned: 0
whereas if I just run F inline, the return

my #1 bash gripe is that newer versions do not
expand command lines containing '$' in emacs
readline editing mode. I used to be able to do:
$ export SRC=../somedir
$ less ${SRC}/
( meaning press horizontal tab key )
and emacs mode readline would expand,
displaying the contents of ../somedir .
Now
