i don't see what is so fundamentally different in this version compared
to the one from Stuart Gathman (except it works, but i think it was a typo).
do you want to stress that python uses an iterator (if so, i would have
renamed _idx to _iter, because it ain't not index anymore)? whats the point
of not starting the for loop at 0? and is there a difference between
(*i == _idx) and (*i == *(&_idx))?
