{iterate}?

We already have {section} and {foreach}, which are substantially similar and
which essentially perform the same task on different types of array. Whilst
I'm not convinced this is necessarily a good thing, it is the status quo and
{iterate} is more in keeping with what's there now. Or perhaps {foreach
mode=iterate}, which has the benefit of not declaring a new tag (I can see
{iterate} being used already by some Smarty users).
