Review comment:
       I personally agree it doesn't seem needed to add special case code in 
C++ to handle deques. 
   
   I would actually even doubt whether we should handle sets (they are 
unordered, so not necessarily directly mapping to an array, the order you get 
from iteration / conversion to list is not deterministic/guaranteed AFAIK). But 
since we already support sets in non-nested situations, I understand that this 
is making that consistent.
