I think I got you confused.

The information I provided in the earlier post was for the entire bundle
of changes in the `feature/dictionary` branch currently waiting to be
tested and merged. The branch has grown to become somewhat of a
misnomer, and `feature/containers` would be a more fitting name by now,
as besides introducing the new `dictionary` container type it also
contains improvements to the classic old-school integer-indexed `array`
container.

All the information you put in the numbered-list section starting with
"Array elements will no longer have to be all of the same type [...]"
applies to arrays, not dictionaries.

It's ok (and, if I am asked, desirable) to have the dictionary-related
stuff in a separate section.


Also, typo:

"There has been a Change that removes than restriction."
                                        ^^^

I'm also noticing right now that the comments in the example section are
a bit inconsistent; please replace "testing" and "removing" with "test"
and "remove".
