Alists have a zillion advantages over plists.
That's not what this enhancement request is about.
A similar situation exists between vectors and
lists. And even among different numeric types.
And even between Lisp symbols and strings.
It's the case that sometimes users use a type
that's less useful than another type in some
context. That's irrelevant to whether plist
functions could benefit from a TEST arg. IMO.
