New submission from Alec Nikolas Reiter:

Not something I've noticed until today, but defaultdict.fromkeys only accepts 
an iterable of keys and an initial value. To set the default_factory for the 
newly created collection, you need to prod at the attribute itself.

This isn't a huge issue for me, however adding an optional default_factory to 
fromkeys would be a nice convenience.
