How about explicitly noting that in Python 2, a large fraction of usages of the iterkeys(), itervalues() and iteritems() methods (that's more than 99% in my experience, but I might be biased) should just be written as keys(), values() and items() in the first place, with no measurable difference of performance or memory usage? I would recommend to anyone with a large Python 2 code base to simply do a textual search-and-replace and see if any test breaks. If not, problem solved.
