It'd be nice to have a __valid_getitem_requests__ protocol that, if

OK, I'll bite. What is this "items()" function you apply to the
arbitrary object?
Similar to len(). Just a shitty wrapper for __valid_getitem_requests__.
Language, sunshine.
Do you have a use case for this, or is it just theoretically nice to
have? I have to say it isn't nice enough for me to actually want it,
and I say that as someone who regularly forgets that iterating over a
dict gets you its keys.
