So, I don't really know what the right answer is, but I
_really_ don't like the idea of having to worry about
the result of front changing after a call to popFront
in every single function that ever uses front.
Isn't the deeper underlying problem here the fact that there's no
generic way to make a deep copy in this language (does any
language?) Making a deep copy of front would be a clean solution.
I don't know how to implement this generic deep copying
functionality though. For example: what would be the semantics of
deep-copying a range?
