I'm not sure I like this because you have to be careful when reversing 
the iterating direction. With my previous proposal, you only had to 
change "next" for "pull" everywhere. With yours, it's "till" to "from" 
*and* "Beg" to "End", as the relationship is somewhat interleaved:

r.nextUntil(s) => r.tillBeg(s)
r.nextAfter(s) => r.tillEnd(s)

r.pullUntil(s) => r.fromEnd(s)
r.pullAfter(s) => r.fromBeg(s)
