using Revise "leaks" methods

julia> using Revise

julia> sort(Dict(2=>22,1=>11))
OrderedCollections.OrderedDict{Int64, Int64} with 2 entries:
  1 => 11
  2 => 22

using Revise added a method for sorting a Dict. This confuses a casual user since testing a package with Pkg.test usually does not include Revise.jl to the environment, and it takes some time to figure out that it was using Revise in the REPL that made the code work.

Verdict is that this won't be fixed any time soon.
