Comment:
Here is the PR link: https://github.com/django/django/pull/5450.
Here is full wording (maybe a bit verbose):
{{{
Keep in mind that ``items`` key in a dictionary will shadow
``items()``
function. This lookup order can cause some unexpected behavior.
In normal situations Django template expression ``{{ data.items }}``
will
return result of following python code: ``data.items()``, however if
``data`` dictionary will contain ``items`` key, the same django
expression
will return: ``data['items']``, which is most probably *not what you
want*.
You should avoid adding dictionary entries whose keys are named like
methods
of dictionary instance for example: ``items``, ``values``, ``keys``,
to
dictionaries that will be passed to Django templates.
For additional information see
:ref:`documentation of template variables <template-variables>`.
