The problem is that once the object has mutated, you *don't know* what
bucket it used to sort into. There is no point at which a dictionary
can see "before" and "after" -- it just sees two different lists.
This is half the problem. In the period where an element is in the
wrong hash bucket, a new entry for the same value can be created in
the proper hash bucket. Then the code will have to determine how to
merge two entries at rehash time.
