Ah, but you can.  Coroutines have an opApply, and are therefore
iterable using foreach.  See the section on coroutines
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/minid/wiki/LanguageSpec2/Functions#Coroutines)
for some info on that.  Using coroutines for iteration is more
powerful, but of course the price you pay is that they're a lot more
expensive than a function closure.

Sure, have a look of fieldsOf/allFieldsOf in the base library
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/minid/wiki/StdLib2/BaseLib).  They'll
give you functions as well, but it's easy to skip over them.
