But this doesn't really require a "generic iterator class", does it? The 
function looked for here is really some variation around this:

The question is more broad and about how to avoid similar functions 
popping up everywhere in Qt codebase. I don't have a good answer for 
that except for "please start collecting them somewhere in the QtPrivate 
namespace".
