Does MPL have an uniform iterator interface? Many MPL algorithms take
sequences, not iterators. You can make a sequence out of two iterators,
true, but what kind of sequence does this produce? MPL sequences have
different characteristics. If you sort the first half of a sequence S, what
properties does the resulting sequence have?
