[Python-Dev] PySequence_Concat for dicts (original) (raw)

I'd like to take an "all or nothing" approach to this: either we implement the same 4 operations as for sets (|, &, ^ and -) or we implement none of them. . . . . I'm not sure where I stand on this proposal -- I guess a +0, if someone else does the work. (The abc.py module needs to be updated too.)

I think this would end-up being clutter, something added just because it could be done, not because we have compelling use cases that can't be met with existing dicts, sets, and lists.
