   * The basic elements_begin() and elements_end() iterators iterate
   * over all elements in a mesh, returning element pointers or const
   * element pointers when dereferenced (depending on whether the mesh
   * reference was const). range-for loops can be written using
   * element_ptr_range()
   *
   * Filtered versions of these iterators, which skip over all
   * elements not matching some predicate, are also available, by
   * adding a prefix to the methods above.  E.g. local_ (in a form
   * like local_elements_begin() or local_element_ptr_range()) will
   * iterate only over elements whose processor_id() is the current
   * processor, or active_ will iterate only over active elements even
   * if the mesh is refined, or active_local_ will iterate over
   * elements that are both active and local.  Negation forms such as
   * not_local_ also exist.
   *
   * For some iterator prefixes, such as type_, an argument is needed
   * for the filter; e.g. the ElemType to select for in that case.
   *
   * All valid prefixes and their corresponding arguments can be found
   * in the macro invocations below.

  /*
   * node_iterator accessors
   *
   * The basic nodes_begin() and nodes_end() iterators iterate
   * over all nodes in a mesh, returning node pointers or const
   * node pointers when dereferenced (depending on whether the mesh
   * reference was const). range-for loops can be written using
   * node_ptr_range()
   *
   * Filtered versions of these iterators, which skip over all
   * nodes not matching some predicate, are also available, by
   * adding a prefix to the methods above.  E.g. local_ (in a form
   * like local_nodes_begin() or local_node_ptr_range()) will
   * iterate only over nodes whose processor_id() is the current
   * processor.
   *
   * All valid prefixes and their corresponding arguments can be found
   * in the macro invocations below.
