Hmm Ok. You are right i can do the following:

from collections import UserDict
from abc import ABCMeta


class MetaMyDict(ABCMeta):

    @classmethod
    def __prepare__(cls, name, bases, **kwargs):
        return {}

    def __new__(mcls, name, bases, namespace, **kwds):
        return super().__new__(mcls, name, bases, namespace)

    def __init__(cls, name, bases, namespace, **kargs):
        return super().__init__(name, bases, namespace)

class MyDict(UserDict, metaclass=MetaMyDict, bar='baz'):
    pass

dictionary = MyDict()

But I guess i would have expected a core lib library to be consistent with the 
data model 
https://docs.python.org/3.4/reference/datamodel.html#preparing-the-class-namespace.
 As it stands an end user can't get a subclass of ABCMeta to work with the same 
**kwargs interface without creating a custom metaclass that strips it out 
before passing to ABCMeta. 

Wouldn't it be much easier and technically correct for the core ABCMeta library 
to adopt the same interface contract for class creation introduced in python3?
