Comment (by ncohen):

 > Duh. So there is no way at all in Python to check if a given container
 item has fixed order?

 What is a 'fixed order' from the point of view of the computer? What you
 want to know is if the order given is the one *intended* by the user. I
 don't think that there is a way to do that, neither in this language nor
 in another. If you want something reliable, test that input is a list, or
 just trust the user to not do anything stupid.
