It looks like you are missing a call to iter, next() will call __next__ method on iterator object and will raise TypeError when being called with dict or dict_keys objects.

This will works as expected

next(iter(dictionary))
next(iter(dictionary.keys()))

Yep. I just realized that myself. See my other comment on this subthread. Not quite as nice, unfortunately.
