- If sets were to grow an API to non-destructively access the object stored in the set for a particular key, then dicts should have such a method too. - I still wish we could go back in time and unify sets and dicts, if only to find out how that experiment would turn out.
+5. If Python3 were to have this feature it would make it worth migrating to (and nearly worthy of the intent that was behind the idea of python3k).
FWIW ... :)
