Yeah, it looks like Mako can't handle dict literals in placeholders.
This template fails too:
===
Hello, world!
<br />
${{"A": 1, "B": 2}["A"]}
===
However, a Python escape works fine;
===
Hello, world!
<br />
<% dic = {"A": 1, "B": 2} %>
${dic["A"]}
===

Down with dict()! It reminds me of array() in PHP.
