Maybe I'm just showing my naivete, but if a class is made abstract,
you can't instantiate it by calling "new" on it.  I would think that
by calling it AbstractIterativeListModel we'd then change the class
to "public abstract class", right?  Please explain what you mean.

Cool.  Are you going to make those modifications?  Sometime after the move to
the new server we'll be making a new release and it would probably be
good to get this stuff moved into the core before that.  Otherwise, it
will have to wait for a later release.
