I meant, methods that use the iterator to fill one or more
collections, rather than having the user do it via foreach. (I missed
addAll, that is indeed what I meant by collect(), though inside out.
partition() would still be nice.)

One other thing - what about indexed iterators? Perhaps a method

Iterator<Pair<int, G>> indexed(Iterator <G>) that converts, say, map
into map-with-index. (Even better if vala gets support for multivalued
iterators, though that seems like quite a huge change :))
