Currently, foreach_reverse on a delegate is equivalent to using foreach on a
delegate.  A novice user might expect foreach_reverse to somehow force the
delegate to iterate its elements in reverse.  In order to prevent more bugs
being filed on this issue, the documentation should specifically identify that
foreach_reverse on a delegate does not reverse the order of iteration, and so
should not be used.

This is related to bug 1553
