Let me add that an items() and keys() for sequences will be also useful for day-by-day programming, since they will be a shortcut for enumerate(seq) and range(len(seq))
I cannot remember the last time I needed range(len(seq)) so I don't see how it can be "useful for day-by-day programming". There is usually a more Pythonic way of doing things. You need to get adjacent elements from a sequence? Use the pairwise recipe from https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html.
