/data operation

add a new sub-command for data that will allow you to perform operations on nbt directly without having to store it to a scoreboard first

ex:

/data operation entity @e[type=item,limit=1] Item.tag.Damage += value 100

so the syntax would be

/data operation <nbt source> <path> <operation> <from/value>

    This is something important to me also. Potentially incredibly useful, especially the modulus function for non-integer values

    examples:

    • data operation storage minecraft:test foo[0].bar %= value 1
    • data operation entity @s Pos[0] *= score @s objectivename
    • data operation block ~ ~ ~ Items[{Slot:0b}].Count -= data entity @s Age

    Yes this would be amazing, but we already have /scoreboard player operation, meaning if you used execute's storage sub command, with score, and /data get, you could make the same effect if you used /data modify to set it from something.
