I agree, the code is quite immature. However, your example is a bit off. If you do my_dict.a.b.c = 2, your Dict will only have the key 'a', as it generates nest

I agree, the code is quite immature. However, your example is a bit off. If you do my_dict.a.b.c = 2, your Dict will only have the key 'a', as it generates nested Dicts. Hopefully you would not expect it to have 'a.b.c' as a key, as imho that would be a bit weird. Needless to say there's a bunch of stuff to figure out, so feel free to submit an issue or PR.
