Yes, I did consider this, and I think that for the cases I converted this
performance issue does not matter much. They're generally not on a 'hot' path,
and/or the lists are of a very small size. But there may be cases where you
disagree with my analysis. 

Of course, now I see that this is Christophe's patch and not mine. But I'm quite
sure he considered it as well ;)
