> The root of the problem in TS-4629 is that elements in the container can 
> self-destruct which de facto removes them from the container and thereby 
> invalidate an iterator unexpectedly. This stems from the combination of 
> intrusive links (so that some container state is in the object) and 
> self-destructing objects (which destroys that state unexpectedly).
> In TS-4629, simply mapping a method call to the objects in the container is 
> unsafe even though no explicit container methods are called. Safe use 
> requires knowing that a particular method can cause self-destruction.
> Some additional thought needs to be put in to this to attempt to prevent 
> situations like TS-4629 from occurring repeatedly in hard to track down 
> situations.
