Raymond Hettinger <rhettin...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:
After enhancing namedtuple and ConfigParser, I found a simpler approach that doesn't involve extending the API. The simple way is to use ordered dictionaries directly. With a small tweak to OD's repr, it is fully substitutable for a dict without changing any client code or doctests (the OD loses its own eval/repr order-preserving roundtrip but what json already gives now). See attached patch.
