Description
Some code uses dicts with a fixed set of keys a lot as a poor-man's struct or record type. If the value types are heterogeneous this is hard to type-check, as code often assumes a given type for a given key. (Namedtuple doesn't really replace this, since it's immutable.)
This is a placeholder issue so I can refer to it -- Jukka has a bit of a design in his head already.
