This PEP changes the default class definition namespace to ``OrderedDict``.
I think this would be a nice improvement.
Furthermore, the order in which the attributes are defined in each class body will now be preserved in ``type.__definition_order__``. This allows introspection of the original definition order, e.g. by class decorators.
I'm unclear on why this would be needed. Wouldn't the OrderedDict be sufficient for preserving definition order? Raymond
