I'm not sure if the misuse of Lists to store non-Node types should be
all that surprising. lappend() accepts a void pointer rather than a
Node *. I also didn't catch anything that indicates storing non-Node
types is bad practise.
Maybe it's worth still adding something to some comments in list.c to
try and reduce the chances of someone making this mistake again in the
future?
