I think it's simply more robust to locally roll your own iterate extension that 
exhibits the behavior you need using the defined extension API, rather than 
produce an incompatible Iterate with an obscure change in semantics. Mind dll 
hell!

Do you want to debug a large app that exhibits an obscure bug that would 
eventually be traced down to the user using a version of the Iterate library 
that differs from yours in that aspect?

Good point.  Who submits a patch to the LaTeX documentation?
