Testing could be interesting. I'm thinking of generating five random string keys with a couple of rows of data, creating csv StringIOs (using pure Python) for all 120 combinations and verifying that they read back in the order they were written. We should also test that OrderedDicts write correctly with a DictWriter and the same key sets. It's a fairly haphazard test plan, so I'll be happy to hear more thorough suggestions. We could at a pinch reduce the number of keys to three if speed considerations dictate. BTW, what happened to NEWS.txt? :)
