Document the breaking change with the new dictionary storage change.
Since the only things dict views support are iteration we should advise people who want the old behaviour to change it to a list.

Iterables
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
For performance reasons, many of the internal data structures were changed into a dictionary to support faster
|
||||
lookup. As a consequence, this meant that some lists that were exposed via the API have changed into iterables
|
||||
and not sequences. In short, this means that certain attributes now only support iteration and not any of the
|
||||
sequence functions.
|
||||
|
||||
The affected attributes are as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
- :attr:`Client.servers`
|
||||
- :attr:`Client.private_channels`
|
||||
- :attr:`Server.channels`
|
||||
- :attr:`Server.members`
|
||||

||||

.. code-block:: python
|
||||
|
||||
if client.servers[0].name == "test":
|
||||
# do something
|
||||
|
||||
Since they are no longer ``list``\s, they no longer support indexing or any operation other than iterating.
|
||||
In order to get the old behaviour you should explicitly cast it to a list.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: python
|
||||
|
||||
servers = list(client.servers)
|
||||
# work with servers
|
||||
|
||||
.. warning::
|
||||
|
||||
Due to internal changes of the structure, the order you receive the data in
|
||||
is not in a guaranteed order.
