Re: Add element in set when element already present.

Hi, The current behaviour corresponds to the mathematical definition
of a set.

Which set operator acts like the current behavior? It seams to me that
union (add) and complement (remove) would be more ergonomic. For
example, a set could be used for banned IPs. Plus it's what every stdlib
does anyway. Is there something useful I miss with the current behavior?

But you could always write a simple wrapper which feeds the elements
one by one to "nft add element" and ignores the error messages for
the duplicates.

That's what I did, but it's not very clean.
