Seems to work for me:

 >>> import collections
 >>> d = collections.transformdict(id)
 >>> L = [1,2,3]
 >>> d[L] = None
 >>> L in d
True
 >>> [1,2,3] in d
False
 >>> print(d[L])
None
 >>> d._data
{41444136: ([1, 2, 3], None)}
 >>> list(d)
[[1, 2, 3]]

However __repr__() is broken:

 >>> d
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
   File "C:\Repos\cpython-dirty\lib\collections\abc.py", line 444, in 
__repr__
     return '{0.__class__.__name__}({0._mapping!r})'.format(self)
   File "C:\Repos\cpython-dirty\lib\collections\__init__.py", line 944, 
in __repr__
     self._transform, repr(dict(self)))
TypeError: unhashable type: 'list'
