The further from dict it goes, the more there is to remember.  Considering the work around is so simple, I just don't think it's worth it:

    for key in list(ordered_dict):
        if some_condition:
            del ordered_dict[key]

A simple list around the dict and we're good to go; and this trick works with dicts, defaultdicts, sets, lists (when you don't want the skipping behavior), etc.
