Sounds good. > > Right, it isn't that I think __definition_order__ is necessarily a bad idea, I just suspect it's redundant if we end up going ahead with __init_subclass__ (which would allow a base class to opt in to preserving the definition order, either of all fields or selected ones), > and the latter change is definitely out of scope for 3.5 at this point. > > There are also other open questions, like whether or not dir() should respect the order when reporting attribute names, or if dict_proxy should respect the order when iterating. Yeah, I'll start up a thread on python-ideas once I've gotten the other stuff wrapped up. Thanks for the feedback. -eric
