And maybe suggest that any other usage is considered "misuse" and is
"strongly discouraged or bad things will happen"...  :)  Basically I
think it should make it very clear that it's there for convenience.

I would like to avoid repeating what is already said in Collection class>>#from:'s docstring. Is there a way to document Dictionary in a way that is less confusing but avoids explaining what is already specified elsewhere?
