You're right. Students don't make the best test subjects.
It might be nice to present this at a Python meet-up or somesuch.
Or some people on this list can present it at work to see how
their colleagues do with it.
Also, it might be nice to get feedback from existing users of
IdentityDicts or CaseInsensitiveDicts to see if they are bothered
by the implementation having two underlying dictionaries.
