Re: List Container Straw Man (NJR V5R1)

Note that my comments on 7

"[list elements must not be private] List elements must be limited
private."

are misleading, since they were made on the modified version

"List elements must not be limited private"

As to mimicking Ada.Strings.*, abstract strings are a special case of
unbounded arrays, not of lists, as they don't provide O(1) insertion and
deletion.

In order to be general, operations taking an array of elements would
have to be generic, so that the client may specify the array type. These
are easy enough for the client to implement with the basic operations,
so I doubt if they're worth the trouble of providing.
