The way I understand the proposal, there are no FooBar dictionaries ever. John said that this can be translated by a source-to-source translation, so internally, a FooBar dictionary *is* a Foo and a Bar dictionary.

Ah yes, I was misled by the syntax, which suggested a superclass relationship, and therefore a combined dictionary. I see now the improved syntax proposal which makes the absence much clearer.

Yeah, that has confused several people already. I wish I used the new syntax in my original post, it really makes more sense.
