I disagree. foreach_reverse is much more clear and concise than any 
solution using iterators. I don't get why so many people are griping 
about it. It's just sugar, much like foreach itself. If you don't like 
it, don't use it. You can implement iterators yourself, or use delegates 
with a plain foreach to get any sort of order traversal you like. Don't 
take away foreach_reverse from those of use who actually like it.

Oh, that's a gem.
