Good catch!

I'm not sure, but I'm tempted to add them to the ABC. What's your
hunch? Do others have an opinion? They shouldn't be a burden for
implementers who use real inheritance from Sequence, as they are
concrete methods there. And it doesn't make sense to move them to
MutableSequence, because there's nothing in them that requires the
sequence to be mutable.
