[issue34160] ElementTree not preserving attribute order

[Julian Sivertsen]

Julian Sivertsen <julian.sivertsen+python at gmail.com> added the comment:

I don't understand why this library should go out of its way to support the old behavior when it seems like the only thing it breaks is tests that assume something that was never guaranteed and where you can get the old behavior in just two lines of Python:

for node in root.iter():
    node.attrib = dict(sorted(node.items()))

Kind regards from confused Pythoner that just wonted the attribute order to make sense
