> They don't support slicing, certainly, but I can't tell from the > collections ABC docs if Sequence is required to support slicing. This looks like a 2.7 docs bug. The table with ABCs mentions __item__, but not __slice__, probably because it was written with 3.x in mind (where slices are a type of __*item__). Do you think we need to improve the documentation for slicing, in general and with regards to collections ABCs?
