If we're treating them as ordered containers then it really ought to be surprising and confusing that two dicts with the same elements in a different order are considered equal. Other ordered containers such as lists or tuples don't behave this way. I'd use an `OrderedDict` in situations where I have a mapping where the order of elements is significant. `OrderedDict` signals intent much more clearly, and its `__eq__` method cares about order.
