Somewhat OT, but collections.ChainMap is really cool. I hadn't noticed
it get added into 3.3, and as far as I can see, it's not in the
"What's New in 3.3" document. But it's little things like this that
*really* make the difference for me in new versions.

So thanks to whoever added it, and could we have a whatsnew entry, please?

Paul.
