Yeah, I also think removing keys from a dict while iterating over it
(like in Steven's examples) looks a bit dangerous dangerous.
Assuming you meant "dict1.pop" instead ot dict2.pop above, your
example might be written
dict2 = dict((k, dict1.pop(k)) for k in dict1 if some_condition(k))
avoiding some namespace pollution etc.
