Missing InsertAfter / InsertBefore for lists

Monkey Forums/Monkey Bug Reports/Missing InsertAfter / InsertBefore for lists

As the title says.

This is missing from lists and should definitely be a core feature.

Preferably it would work like so:

node.InsertAfter(myObject)
node.InsertBefore(myObject)

'or

'(needle->haystack ... or haystack->needle?)
list.InsertAfter(myObject, node)
list.InsertBefore(myObject, node)

As a sort of side issue to this, can I ask Mark why the Node stuff in List is private? Is it likely to change?

Lists would be more extensible if this were public.

You are free to use the nodes, I do it all the time.

This is probably not going to be added to monkey but I wrote an incredibly simple sortablelist extension. It would be good if monkey got something like this so people have a bit more flexibility?
