Like three-liners?  whatsnew/2.5 gives us this one:

class zerodict(dict):
    def __missing__(self, key):
        return 0

I don’t think it’s too painful to have to use defaultdict with a lambda.  We 
can’t use a keyword argument and I’m -0.5 on changing behavior depending on the 
type of the first argument.
