Indeed, there's been a discussion on this very subject not three weeks ago: 
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2011-January/009037.html

I'm guessing this request is going to get more common for some time, as people

1.9 (well they didn't exactly switch anything around, they added back and next 
pointers to their dict cells)
