[Python-ideas] Ordered storage of keyword arguments

[Guido van Rossum]

Let's see if someone can come up with an ordereddict implemented in C
first and then benchmark the hell out of it.

Once its performance is acceptable we can talk about using it for
keyword args, class dicts, or even make it the one and only dict
object -- but the latter would be a really high bar to pass.
