R. David Murray added the comment:

Indeed.  Although there was apparently some call for it, it doesn't sound from 
a quick google like defaultdict was deemed to require a PEP.  Presumably the 
informed audience should be wider than this issue, though.

I also note that defaultdict is implemented via a special method on dict itself 
(__missing__), and if this one was implemented the same way it would be easy to 
combine the features.
