Just laughing at the Cunningham's Law response of everyone jumping in to let you know that dictionaries are now insertion ordered.

The proposal in question is not that good so maybe the order of the dicts is more interesting :P

What I meant was "sorted", which is a bit more specific than "ordered", but it serves me right :)

The funniest part is that this does not really matter for this discussion: insertion order is pretty much arbitrary when what you need is for key 0 to come first, key 1 to come next...
