Description

Hello,

it will be nice if to_dict method could provide same orient parameter as to_json.
For example when outtype='split' we get same results as outtype='series'.

I also noticed that df.to_dict(outtype='split1234') is understood as df.to_dict(outtype='series') which is quite strange but df.to_dict(outtype='a1234') raises ValueError: outtype a1234 not understood which is a correct behavior

Kind regards

Femto
