[issue19026] OrderedDict should not accept dict as parameter

[anatoly techtonik]

anatoly techtonik added the comment:

I don't know if it is bug or feature. There are probably cases when order is not important and OrderedDict is used, but I don't remember any.

Too bad Python doesn't have first class ordered mapping type, so that it could report error if unordered arguments are supplied (such as dict or **kwargs).
