Yet one alternative proposal is to add the dict.transform() method. Actually this not contradict TransformDict, but generalize it. TransformDict will be just handly interface to transform() as defaultdict to missing(). It provides only constructor, repr and pickling.

Is it an alternative proposal or is it compatible with the PEP? The PEP specifies the API, not the implementation.

Antoine.
