Summary: UserDict is not iterable
Initial Comment:
UserDict does not directly support iteration:
>>> import UserDict
>>> ud = UserDict.UserDict()
>>> ud['a'] = 1
>>> [k for k in ud]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "C:\Python24\lib\UserDict.py", line 17, in
__getitem__
def __getitem__(self, key): return self.data[key]
KeyError: 0
The fix is to define __iter__ = iterkeys:
>>> class UD(UserDict.UserDict):
... __iter__ = UserDict.UserDict.iterkeys
...
>>> ud = UD()
>>> ud['a'] = 1
>>> [k for k in ud]
['a']

This could not be done for reasons of backwards compatability.
To get what you want, use UserDict.IterableUserDict.
