From a cursory glance, I still think this is the wrong approach. There's a lot of complication due to the simple fact that it is subclassing from dict (and therefore trying to be ABI-compatible, kind of). The linked list scheme should be much simpler (perhaps it shouldn't be a linked list at all, actually: see Raymond's recent proposal). I understand a lot of work has gone into it, but I'm against the current proposal.
