we need more people reviewing and commenting on this issue. Question, should we: 1. Integrate (may break external code, or not - I don't know) 2. Modify this solution, so it may not break existing code I am for (1) but I really don't know. What would you expect by comparing two dictionaries with the same elements, by #=, if one is a Dictionary and the other one a SmallDictionary? (Maybe SmallDictionaries aren't often used?)
