Rails core - Mar 2013 - Issue: "ActiveRecord Hstore bug: can't update a key in the hash"

Hi all. I''m interested in contributing to Rails as a next step in
software
development. I''m sure there''s tons of things to learn while
working on a
widely used, rather complex project. I''m working in private companies
for
fun and profit, and I want to also work on big-ish OSS projects for 
contributing back, learning and for fun.

I saw there''s a bug in Hstore, where one cannot update a key in the
hash
(https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/6127). Aaron Patterson says that 
he''s aware of this issue, and he''d "like to treat the
hstore columns as
serialized columns, but it''s going to take a little refactoring".
If nobody
started on it yet, and somebody could help me defining the first steps on 
this refactor and fix, I''d be happy to walk through it, until I have 
something that either works or doesn''t (and so maybe start over again).

Which are the refactors that we would need, and which may lead to this bug 
getting fixed?

Thank you in advance,

Tute.
