I don't mind the parts of the patch which surface the "readable" bits of
a dict;  however, I don't think I want to encourage anybody to assume
that modifying the object through '__setitem__' / 'update' is
supported.  Does Plone actually need that, or were you just being
thorough?

Yep, no problem there.

BTW, I vastly prefer to read unified diff.  My ~/.cvsrc looks like:

  $ cat .cvsrc
  -z7
  diff -u
