Note that iterators in .NET and C++ are a bit different. .NET has

I wonder how that works under the hood. Like, if it's somewhat similar
to opApply. Or maybe more like an Asm-style "messin' with the call
stack's return addresses". I would hope it wouldn't involve fiber
context switches, unless they're somehow much faster than D fiber
context switches (which would seem weird, being in a VM).
The compiler generates a state-machine for you.
