Why are there no ordered dictionaries?

What I actually wanted to say is that there may be a confusion between a 
"sorted dictionary" (one where the keys are automatically sorted) and an 
"ordered dictionary" (where the keys are not automatically ordered, but 
have a certain order that is preserved). Those who suggested that the 
"sorted" function would be helpful probably thought of a "sorted 
dictionary" rather than an "ordered dictionary."
