(if ever) most of the database and cab traders, etc start using them.

It also matches pretty well with numpy "record arrays":

- bag


I also like this -- not many folks will have a ore-conceived notion of what
it is.

- declarative


Yeach-- that's an adjective (at least on most common use) -- and a
programming term that means something else.

Also, considering their uses, it might make sense to put them in the
collections module.


Yup.
