Detailed Description

a folder in the namespace: contains other stream::Entry objects.

The iteration model for Folders is very primitive. That is intentional. If you want multiple iterators for a given Folder at the same time, create multiple Folder objects. Remember that you may be creating expensive iterators underneath (open directory handles, database cursors, etc.) so in general keeping multiple iterators open at the same time is discouraged anyway.
