IMO the rules should be something like:
- r.empty WILL return false if there is more data available in the
range.
- r.empty MUST be called before r.front, r.front WILL succeed if
r.empty returned false.
- r.front WILL repeatably return the current element in the range. It
MAY return by value or by reference.
- r.empty SHOULD be called before r.popFront, otherwise r.popFront
MAY do nothing or throw
(could also make this one a 'MUST')
- r.popFront WILL advance to the next element in the range.
These two rules are not necessary if you know the range is not empty.

Gah, I didn't cut out the right rules. I meant the two rules that empty
must be called before others. Those are not necessary.
