OK, well that means reworking the iterators -- i suggest we do this before
creating more.
The problem with the current iterators is that they iterate over COM
objects, rather than over, say Watir::TextField objects (which is
implicitly what my example would require). This would require Wrapper
objects, like those we already have for Form.
Personally, i think we should not be exposing COM objects, except as a
'back door' to let people muck with the iternals -- we should not be
inviting people to mess with them.
(Another issue with Iterators is that they can only iterate over a static
page. Thus the following code will fail
ie.buttons.each {| b | b.click if b.name == "foo" and b.title == "bar"}
because a new page will load after clicking the button, making the buttons
iteration lose context.

I'd also put in a request for table cells...sometimes I work with
tables that have more rows/columns than the row_count and column_count
say they do. When I try a table[x][y].exists? I get an error
