Attached is a patch that adds documentation to `shelve.rst` explicitly stating that it does not support the viewkeys, viewvalues, and viewitems methods. 

I think this is the correct approach since it doesn't seems sensible to add support for these methods to UserDict, *and* also it might give users the impression that they can incrementally iterate over a shelved object without loading it all (which I believe is incorrect).
