I did test it with 2.3, discovered that it wasn't working, but thought
that this would be fixable, so this has been on my todo list.

We can definitely think about this.  I'll have to read up on odict to
see if it does everything that we need.  Of top of my head, though,
odict 1400 lines, too big to just include in our code, so we would
have to worry about an extra dependency.  But let's think about this.
Perhaps we should look at more options too.
