I was wondering if there is an easy way to build an indexable weak ordered set in Python. I tried to build one myself. Here's what I came up with:

```
"""
An indexable, ordered set of objects, which are held by weak reference.
"""
from nose.tools import *
import blist
import weakref

class WeakOrderedSet(blist.weaksortedset):
    """
    A blist.weaksortedset whose key is the insertion order.
    """
    def __init__(self, iterable=()):
        self.insertion_order = weakref.WeakKeyDictionary()  # value_type to int
        self.last_key = 0
        super().__init__(key=self.insertion_order.__getitem__)
        for item in iterable:
            self.add(item)

    def __delitem__(self, index):
        values = super().__getitem__(index)
        super().__delitem__(index)
        if not isinstance(index, slice):
            # values is just one element
            values = [values]
        for value in values:
            if value not in self:
                del self.insertion_order[value]

    def add(self, value):
        # Choose a key so that value is on the end.
        if value not in self.insertion_order:
            key = self.last_key
            self.last_key += 1
            self.insertion_order[value] = key
        super().add(value)

    def discard(self, value):
        super().discard(value)
        if value not in self:
            del self.insertion_order[value]

    def remove(self, value):
        super().remove(value)
        if value not in self:
            del self.insertion_order[value]

    def pop(self, *args, **kwargs):
        value = super().pop(*args, **kwargs)
        if value not in self:
            del self.insertion_order[value]

    def clear(self):
        super().clear()
        self.insertion_order.clear()

    def update(self, *args):
        for arg in args:
            for item in arg:
                self.add(item)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    class Dummy:
        def __init__(self, value):
            self.value = value

    x = [Dummy(i) for i in range(10)]
    w = WeakOrderedSet(reversed(x))
    del w[2:8]
    assert_equals([9,8,1,0], [i.value for i in w])
    del w[0]
    assert_equals([8,1,0], [i.value for i in w])
    del x
    assert_equals([], [i.value for i in w])

```

Is there an easier way to do this?
