Hi Guido,

I'm sorry for being unclear! I just try actually to learn what thoses consequences for theses 'unattended' mutations in dictionary key lookups could be, :-) however, it seems now that I might have touch a nerve without realizing it. I would therefore appreciate more light on this "issue" if you like to enlighten us all. :D

Etienne,

For those that need to understand the issue in order to further consider the consequences of the change, RDM has already explained the problem quite clearly. If you'd like a more in-depth explanation, please ask the question again over on core-mentorship at python.org. It's not an appropriate topic for the main development list.

Regards, Nick.
