If the container can change (as the comments suggest)
we need more info about "how" could it change, as I don't think
that testing for .end() would be enough to be "safe".

Copying the full list might actually be the "safest" approach.

BTW, I've verified in the past that testing for .end() or .size() and
friends in a for condition is actually slower then caching it in
the initializer.
