paul j3 added the comment:

Yes, the use of ordered dictionary would be right.  Your code would still 
reorder actions that have fallback values, but that wouldn't affect others.

Yes, a fallback hook at the end of parsing would have to be placed before the 
'required' testing, not after as in my 'group' testing.

I still haven't absorbed why this patch is superior to the ConfigArgParse 
approach, or chaining dictionary values after parsing.

By the way I like how ConfigArgParse claims to automatically test itself 
against 'test_argparse.py'.  I'd also suggest following its example in 
published this enhancement in your own repository and pypi.  The process of 
adding features to the main Python distribution is very slow.
