Summary

I find it hard to understand what value to pass for all the arguments
to merge.update(). I would like to introduce functions that are more
specific to each use-case. We already have graft(). This patch
introduces a clean_update() and uses it in some places to show that
it works.

Oh, of course we should. I added a sentence. I'm not sure if you consider that solid. Let me know what's missing otherwise.
