Actually, the first step is publish it on PyPI, the second is to get a fair number of happy users there. The bar for getting something included into the stdlib is pretty high -- you need to demonstrate that there is a need *and* that having it as a 3rd party module is a problem. And that once it's in, (a) it will be stable, and (b) someone who cares about it and knows the code thoroughly is available maintain it for years.
Perhaps the collections doc should mention that there are other specializes container types available on PyPI and either list some or point to a wiki page listing some. There must be at least 10 that could be included in such a list.
