2.7 can't be changed for backward compatibility reasons, and python3 enforces the restriction in dict, as you observe.

I don't know if a python2 documentation note is worthwhile, but given the conversations at pycon about adding additional -3 warnings to 2.7, it seems like this is a place such a warning would be justified.
