Thanks for using the suggestions.
One more thing to keep in mind: Creating a Dict and putting items in it
has quite bit of overhead. The two levels of Dicts means the function
is not going to be efficient. For short lists this might not matter
much, but what if it is used on a long list? Perhaps using one Dict per
hunk would be OK without making it less usable. Might even make it
simpler to understand.
