R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: I believe it was actually Guido who suggested exposing dict_proxy, in response to Victor (but independent of Victor's needs, if I understood the message correctly).
It has always seemed odd to me ("always" referring my time working with Python3, of course) that a class that implements the mapping protocol has no way to return the same type of objects that real dict methods do. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14386> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
