    1.13 + * The classes LinkedList<T> and LinkedListElement<T> together form a
    1.14 + * convenient, type-safe doubly-linked list implementation.
    1.15 + *
    1.16 + * The class T which will be inserted into the linked list must inherit from
    1.17 + * LinkedListElement<T>.  A given object may be in only one linked list at a
    1.18 + * time.
    1.19 + *
    1.20 + * A LinkedListElement automatically removes itself from the list upon
    1.21 + * destruction, and a LinkedList will fatally assert in debug builds if it's
    1.22 + * non-empty when it's destructed.
    1.23 + *
    1.24 + * For example, you might use LinkedList in a simple observer list class as
    1.25 + * follows.

    1.79 +     * It's convenient that we return nullptr when getNext() or getPrevious()
    1.80 +     * hits the end of the list, but doing so costs an extra word of storage in
    1.81 +     * each linked list node (to keep track of whether |this| is the sentinel
    1.82 +     * node) and a branch on this value in getNext/getPrevious.
    1.83 +     *
    1.84 +     * We could get rid of the extra word of storage by shoving the "is
    1.85 +     * sentinel" bit into one of the pointers, although this would, of course,
    1.86 +     * have performance implications of its own.
    1.87 +     *
    1.88 +     * But the goal here isn't to win an award for the fastest or slimmest
    1.89 +     * linked list; rather, we want a *convenient* linked list.  So we won't
    1.90 +     * waste time guessing which micro-optimization strategy is best.
    1.91 +     *
    1.92 +     *
    1.93 +     * Speaking of unnecessary work, it's worth addressing here why we wrote
    1.94 +     * mozilla::LinkedList in the first place, instead of using stl::list.
    1.95 +     *
    1.96 +     * The key difference between mozilla::LinkedList and stl::list is that
    1.97 +     * mozilla::LinkedList stores the prev/next pointers in the object itself,
    1.98 +     * while stl::list stores the prev/next pointers in a list element which
    1.99 +     * itself points to the object being stored.
   1.100 +     *
   1.101 +     * mozilla::LinkedList's approach makes it harder to store an object in more
   1.102 +     * than one list.  But the upside is that you can call next() / prev() /
   1.103 +     * remove() directly on the object.  With stl::list, you'd need to store a
   1.104 +     * pointer to its iterator in the object in order to accomplish this.  Not
   1.105 +     * only would this waste space, but you'd have to remember to update that
   1.106 +     * pointer every time you added or removed the object from a list.
   1.107 +     *
   1.108 +     * In-place, constant-time removal is a killer feature of doubly-linked
   1.109 +     * lists, and supporting this painlessly was a key design criterion.
