I could say the same thing about JSON dumps then and most itertools functions. The proposed functionality is in line with existing functionality and extends it to the case of nested data structures.

JSON itself is standardized, heavily used, and well supported in many languages. What you're saying here about pointers is far less widely used, and the act of flattening a nested dictionary doesn't seem to be a well known one. Can you point to other languages or libraries that have this feature as a built-in or standard library function? ChrisA
