David:
You are correct that the goal is to handle CSVs with duplicate headers, and
that the main intention is to have some of the behavior of DictReader without
the destruction of data (such as the auto population of field names as you
stated).
It is not the intention of this to change the behavior of DictReader, as stated
in issue 17537. It is instead covering a problem that was discussed later in
the thread and would offer an alternative solution with non destructive
behavior to DictReader while maintaining backwards compatibility.
