[Python-Dev] Weak Dictionary Iteration Behavior in Python 3 (original) (raw)

My thought on all this is to implement WeakKeyDictionary as a C extension and have it atomically construct and return a list for keys().

While this would not be exactly the same behaviour as an ordinary dict, I don't expect that much code would notice the difference.
