Ok, I understand.
However, in my initial problem, the sequence passed to groupby was a set, e.g.
(modifying my previous example) :
groupby(set([p1, p2, p3]), lambda p: p.key)
If I understand well how groupby() works, the result of a groupby performed on
a set is unpredictable, since it depends of the order of the items when
iterating over the set. Perhaps the behavior of groupby() should be modified
for unsorted sequences, possibly not taking the order into account, or raising
an error ?
