It would be helpful if the interface elements were to satisfy the STL
requirements on iterators and collections. Those specify a minimum
interface, which may be extended as needed.
The one caveat is, don't try to "shoehorn" any semantics into the
interface; anything that doesn't fit precisely should be treated
as an extension instead, and the corresponding standard interface
left unimplemented.
