Sounds good!  (I always end up calling one of the iterators on python
dicts anyway, since I can never remember what the default iterator
behavior is.)

I presume that .collect() expects an iterator of [k,v] pairs or
something?  Also: this is the first I've heard of .collect().  I
presume that'll show up in the spec?
