Thing is that most of the time, I'm more interested in testing to see if
a container/sequence has something in it rather than has nothing in it.

while( range.nonEmpty )
{
    doSomethingWith(range.front);
    range.advanceFront;
}

I admit that nonEmpty is probably a bad name; I just couldn't think of a
short and pithy way of saying 'has something in it.'  Then again, I
don't want to start another war of semantics; it's not the end of the
world :P
