Also, unlike Python, this doesn't support step notation. It would be neat to have, but it's not really a huge deal, so kinda low priority.

I had no idea python slices could take steps!

Yeah, Python is actually pretty good at dealing with lists, given how it has slices + steps, list comprehensions, etc. It also has a bunch of neat stuff for dealing with iterators, which I consider to be one of the strengths of Python. So let's steal the good stuff and put it into Arc, shall we?
