What about
.
    echo /blah/blah/blah/**/*.oogabooga(e.:t 2.)
.
after defining «function ":t" { … }» using one of the previous snippets?
You could even define curried versions, «_t2() { :t 2 "$@" }», for use
with the «(+_t2)» syntax.

I'm not opposed to adding the new code; just brainstorming on alternatives.
