"...Ada has such weak support for iterators."
Will you stop saying that? An iterator is an abstraction. No general purpose language is suppose to have "support for iterators". Ada provides many building blocks appropriate for constructing iterators. The only thing lacking is perhaps anonymous subprograms (e.g. like blocks in Smalltalk). But I fear adding that would go against a number of the "-ilities".
