Comment(by bacek):
Replying to [comment:5 allison]:
> We really shouldn't have separate Iterator classes for specific data
types (though I agree the new implementation is an improvement over the
old Iterator). Instead of having ArrayIterator and HashIterator as a
subclass of Iterator, an Iterator should detect whether it's working with
an array or hash and behave appropriately.
What??? Back to Keys??? Single class to detect aggregate such as Array,
Hash, OrderedHash, String and possible many other form HLL???
BTW, Current Hashes can have "native" type as values. And "native" as key
except FLOATVAL. So, renaming Hash to UnorderedPMCArray is misleading.
