The implementation is more or less a hack, and that is because of
limitations of bridge. But the concept of iterating a 'huge' list using the
bridge is useful, and not ugly. Because whatever the improvements will be on
bridge or core, instantiating a complete NodeList only to iterate it once,
will allways be overly expensive on memory.

The only goal of this proposal is implementing NodeIterator, and those are
its only public methods. So, when a better way of implementing arises, it
can simply replace the proposed one.

As said, I don't anticipate the MMCI project to solve the real problem soon.
But in the mean time you can use it already.

I think one should not -1 on certain code, because other code is not good,
or limited. This code does what it promises: Iterating a huge number of
nodes, while limiting the resources.
