Nitpick but please don't do this.

Hmmm... wouldn't it be better to move the reclaim logic into a
function and do the following?

reclaim(root);
for_each_descendent_pre()
reclaim(descendant);

If this is a problem, I'd be happy to add a iterator which includes
the top node. I'd prefer controllers not using the next functions
directly.

Thanks.
