This has me trying to think of ways to implement the ksh ([key]=value)
syntax.

    typeset -a varname=([k1]=v1 [k2]=v2)

is just

    typeset -A varname varname[k1]=v1 varname[k2]=v2

There's probably a not-too-horrible way to do that if already looking
for assignments inside the parens ...

But I wouldn't suggest delaying any further for that.
