thank you for making dict ordered.
Is it planned to access key,value pair(s) by index? See

a dictionary entry - and it will stay that way.
That is fully corret to respect the _insertion_ order.
If you need such an hybrid data structure, you could just have
a list of tuples as data structure, and use collections.abc.MutableMapping
to provide a dict-like interface to it (an index for better than linear search).
I could create such a data structure if you want,
Thank you, I will write it myself.
