Sure, there's a number of solutions to my immediate problem,
the fitting of which is
for key in dict(DictRow):
That's the best fit because my
def _escape_dict(the_dict, ...):
was inaptly named. It should have been (and now is)
def _escape_dict_like(dict_like, ...):
within which
dict(dict_like)
is quite the thing to do despite having to make something a
duck which already nearly quacks like one is somehwat
unfortunate.
