At least you know it will terminate. That always was a guaranteed property of the for-loop. With being able to move back and forth as some iterator wishes, this property will be gone forever. Iterators: Good idea. Using for-loops for that: Bad idea. for-loops are for "static" things, be it enumerations, sets, or ranges. I would vote for that, but not for (disguised) iterators in for-loops. Those are more suited for while-loops.
