This is what I meant by my previous follow up: while the concept of "an ordered dictionary" is nice and seemingly generic enough, in practice I suspect that exact semantics and other design factors will either tend to push the stdlib implementation into ever more complexity, or won't prevent people from continuing to roll their own because the stdlib version "isn't quite right".
